If you’ve been following along on this journey (Helsinki/Tallinn/Riga/Klaipeda/Vilnius), then you know we had Russian Visa issues prior to leaving the US. After the earlier-than-planned exit from Russia and with time left before our scheduled departure back home, the question then became: Where should we go for the remainder of the trip?
