Tallinn, Estonia (Estonian Winner 2012)

The plan was to be one day in Tallinn, leave at 8am with ferry from Helsinki and return at 10pm in the evening. Our show ring was calculated to start at 13:13 so we thought we had lots of time to get to the show ground. Our one day in Tallinn ended up to be more stressful than I and my friend Salla could have thought. Because of the bad weather our morning ferry was cancelled and we were transferred to a ferry leaving at 10am. One hour later that ferry was also cancelled which ended up in a situation where we had to book the ticket from and other company. We arrived 12.45 to Tallinn with the ferry, which also was late. We had so much luck with us, the 4 petits made it to the ring. With wonderful results!!
