Amazing, mixed cultures, laying next to each other, spectacular designs and settings, the place, where among many others rests my dear grandpa.

Paldiski
September 1st, 2009 by ketli
Before 1994, this little port town was a busy Soviet military base, home to nuclear rockets and submarines. Very lonely place now. Pakri peninsula on which it sits is home to some beautiful natural scenery and some rare wildlife.
Dear Truike, Autumn in Paldiski brings up warm memories of you.
