But a clever way back to the continent, thought they were going through Belarus.

Can we expect Riga or Vilnius as well then? Cmon Andrew, there's room for one more before Warsaw, you know you want to :lol:

Hm, hm ...

You are of course right, Bartek, but if his voice was of any concern in the tour planning, we would have had no more than 5 concerts on each continent :innocent:

Take the ferry to Helsinki and fly out of Vantaa.

Alternately, there are trains and buses between Tallinn and Riga, from where you also can catch direct flights to Warsaw.

I guess I'll go with the ferry and plane, but on the 30th... although I am afraid of going with ships…

As it turned out, I was travelling back home from Helsinki through Tallinn, and I must say - what a charming town it is, yet so derelict with all its beauty.
I hope you'll have a great gig there, because in my eyes it seemed one of the places that truly deserve a great Sisters gig. 8)

I believe it's becoming known in the UK as a cheap location for stag parties :( Not the sort of tourists a town really wants to attract! Anyway, have a great gig tonight people. If I'd found a possible way of doing this one, I'd be there too.
