Day 11 - Trip to Valga

Day 11

When we woke up, the sun was shining and the morning was very beautiful. After our meal, full of energy, we sat in the bus and we were ready for our trip to Valga.  During the journey all of us enjoyed the awesome landscapes that Estonia offers. When we arrived in the town we realized that the trip was not as long as we imagined it would be. Then, we divided into groups and took a trip across Valga. Some went to the tourist information centre, others headed straight to the military museum, to learn some new things about Estonian history and see some requisites from the ancient military times.  What was also really interesting, was our walk to Latvia. Valga is a town that’s right on the Estonian-Latvian border, so we had the opportunity to visit two countries at a time. It’s not strange that the slogan of the town is ‘1 linn, 2 riiki’(1 town, 2 countries). Fun, huh?!

 While in the tourist information centre, we bought some souvenirs so that we have some memories when we go back home.  We also took a map and went sightseeing.

We got our delicious lunch at a restaurant in the centre of Valga. They said it was the best restaurant in town, we can confirm it.

After, we went to the park so we could do our common sports activities. We were lucky to find little children playing football, so after their match we asked them to join us. In the park, we were playing games and did some sports. Each of the activities and games was prepared and presented by different country.  At 5 o’clock, sleepy and tired, we got on the bus and headed back to our camp.
