Great video! Seeing what happened to Estonia, Finlanders must feel a great sense of graduate for the sacrifices its WWII generation.

Excellent. Thanks for posting. I enjoy your videos.

Great Vid man! Looks like an interesting place.

Pops, This, one is one of your best Travelogue's ever. I love it when you recount the terrible Russian conquest and occupation of these now free people. Never forget!!!

I really enjoyed this video…thanks for sharing. It’s important to remember how bad the Soviet (and current Russian) systems of Government were for normal people.

Yes, that "people get the government they deserve" is a fallacy.

This was a wonderful video, buddy! Thanks for taking us along!

Interesting video, thanks for sharing YAH bless !

Thank you for that. Brilliant as ever 👍

I missed so much when I passed through on my m/c ride through Baltic countries... Just the pharmacy. I was UK-brainwashed into thinking it was simply a venue for moronic stag and hen parties to misbehave in... I want to go back now, great video, most informative. Hat off to bravery and resourcefulness f the Estonians.

Great video Pops , I really enjoyed that very much indeed 👍 All the best to you and yours 👍 🍻 🍻 🍻

Thanks for the interesting video 👍

That was very interesting, have always wondered how the otherside dealt with the cold war period and of course after WWII btw good to see you again.

Awesome video, Tallinn is a very cool city I was blessed to get to visit it a few years ago. The naval museum there was probably my favorite one I’ve been to.

I'm good. And thanks for welcoming!

Excellent video. I loved the line about escaping to become something rather than nothing. I go to Estonia most weeks and really like the people there.

They've really become something and fast. I remember how Estonia had a bad reputation in the tough 90's. Dishonesty, crime and prostitution. But that was the whole post-Soviet realm.

I have never met American natives, but I guess, I'd manage with them.

The pre invasion and victims of continued genocide were not native to a land named after an Italian geographer. The polite term is either first peoples, ask their ‘nation’ and , like any other human their own name. Most of us have adopted the term ‘Turtle Island’ from a eastern woodland creation myth. As for being taciturn and silent? Most cant be bothered with idiots Who think in terms of John Wayne. Make friends, and the elders will talk your head off. Chris Kavanaugh
