If I was a tourist

coming to Tallinn in spring I would try to hold on with my visit until the second half of May. If I remember it correctly, during the last 3-4 (or 6) years there have been at least a few days of 25° C/ 77° F and sunny weather in every May. So, when planning your trip months in advance, you just might get lucky with the weather. And the cost of getting over here should be lower as well. However, as this week proved you might also luck out and end up having to make your first order of business a visit to the ladies selling woolly mitts and hats. So it's a gamble.

I like spring in Estonia. There are blooms everywhere: tulips in gardens, lilacs and chestnuts outside of them, and globe-flowers and lilies-of-the-valley in forests. I suppose May then would be a good time to visit the Botanical Gardens.
