Tallin Russia

Here are some pictures of Tallin Russia. The buildings are so impressive and how well they are built. There again the building are hundreds if not thousands of years old.

After dinner on the plane, they gave each person a DVD player and head set and you have about 12 choices of movies and video's. They turn off the lights and gave each person a quart bottle of water, blanket and pillow and the great mask to block out lights and action around you. I choose to sleep and I did. Needless to say the Russian airlines has the right idea of service, Their employees on the plane speak Russian, German, English including the Pilots. The Pilot announces the flight pattern, weather in three languages.
When the sun rose over Ireland and the smell of coffee and breakfast cooking everyone was stretching and out came the hot towels to wipe your face and hands ans the linen was right behind that with several courses of breakfast, wow this is the way to travel for sure.First came the OJ, and individual porcelain salt & Pepper shakers and butter cup full of butter and bread dish with jelly. out comes the macaroni and cheese with pruchetti, fruit cup, cheese, toast, tea with lemon. I did not eat the mac and cheese, but I drank two cups of the most wonderful Russian tea. Now we are 30 minutes from landing in Moscow. Gwen came forward and sat next to me. Just as we exited the plane a wheel chair was brought for Gwen. The wheel chair was dinning room type chair with four wheels, no sides and a high back. I was laughing so hard inside and I told Gwen don't lean to far to the left or right or she would get stepped on. The gentlemen pushing the chair did not speak any English, so the airline pilot told him to take us to the Customs and the VIP room. He certainly did, we got to this flight of steps and he pointed to the top of the flight of which was 26 steps to a landing and 26 more to the next level. On all of these steps people were sitting because there were no benches anywhere in the airport but probably hundreds of Duty Free shops of all kinds. As Gwen started climbing the steps she had to ask people to move, they were just rudely watching her take one step at a time at the hand railing. We got to the top and went right to the VIP room and each had a bottle of water and sat in the most wonderful comfortable leather chairs and waited for our connecting flight in 4 hours.
