We passed by this hotel to ask for an ATM becasue we did not had any Latvian money with us. There was this lonely horse in a field in front of the hotel.

Traffic sign in Salacgriva showing distances to Tallinn and Riga. Adding them up would give the total distance from Riga to Tallinn, and that is how much I had to drive.

Wonderful sunset at Saulkrasti , a town very near to Riga. We booked for a so-and-so (but cheap) camping site here in Saulkrasti just to sleep and continue our journey to Riga next morning. The camping site had this large beach which offered us a nice sunset.

Now comes a set of photos from the Estonian City of Tartu , while driving towards Tallinn from Riga. We stopped in this city for one night and most of the following day (15-16th July) This is a night-shot of a popular Atlantis nightclub by the river of Tartu. Unfortunately we were too tired to jump in.
