walk the line

June hasn't really reached any summery temperatures but global warming aside it has been a pretty great month. Besides I'm off to Cyprus in 2 days to bake myself in +48 C. 

because spring is one of the best seasons for taking photos:

Stefano came to discover north-east, find polar-bears and freeze his nose off a little bit. I really enjoy this being a tourist and a tourguide at the same time in my own city.

Vacation! Lots of relaxation at the countryside, berry-picking and then eating all things fresh the garden offers, swimming in the sea, going to festivals, concerts and listening to good music, visiting friends, eating out and just enjoying summer like summer needs to be enjoyed. I think July is my favorite month (except when I'm traveling, then every month becomes my favorite month).  BBQ! Our neighbors created a beautiful fruit garden 10-11 years ago, at the same time we bought our ground next to them, then the family left and I think haven't been back in 10-ish years. The bushes were so active and full of life, that now our side of the garden is also full of bushes. So until my own bushes and trees are still little, we can enjoy the fruits of these the neighbour planted.  Sophie expresses her love for summer like this. Klooga! Little visitor.  It might not look like that...

Perfect summer soundtrack. June has been full of celebrations: graduations, birthdays and all other achievements and life moments wort celebrating. It feels like we've been eating cake and candy every other day at work. I turned 26. Strawberry season started. Estonian strawberries beat all other strawberries.  Finally got to visit Põhjaka manor. A beautiful restaurant in an old manor house with Estonian cuisine and the menu changes daily. It's rated as a high-class restaurant. Loved the atmosphere and the food. Also they sell craft beers and ciders, sweets, bread and herb butters to go. Had a late lunch in Jäneda when got lost on Tartu-Tallinn highway, which is pretty much a straight road of 186 km from one city to another. GPS sent us on a detour and we weren't smart enough to realize before we had already driven around 90 km of it. One of these blonde moments I suppose.  Because Sophie loves being outside more than anyth...
