WEATHER: Rain

We were hopeful. Rain was forecast but it was sunny at our 8:30 start. Then overcast. Then drizzle. Then rain. But everyone I talked with, and I concur, had a great day. We were on good roads with spars traffic. We played peek-a-boo with the Baltic. We ended at Palmse at the edge of the Lehemaa National Park. This was the first park designated by the Soviet Union and it comprises 4 peninsulas stunning in their beauty and diversity.

We spend the night at one of the 4 manor houses at the edge of the park. We are all soaked but delighted with our accommodations and the hot baths. Palmse has its own microbrew which is mighty tasty!

Tomorrow the weather forecast is for high overcast and scattered drizzle. I think my clothes are dry so bring it on!
