Ship landed early in the morning - but the port was right next to downtown, with a market section right in the port. Started by walking up to the old town, and were met by the cold weather. The hats, sweaters, furs and scarves of wool were immediate draws. Spent the day walking starting in the old town, where walking up what turned out to be one of the main streets, visited many of the local handicraft stores - Elsa, Mom and Lora Leigh found some wonderfully felted wool hats. After seeing the old Ghost Church, headed to Market Square, where Mom found another knit cap, and Elsa located her Swiss Cheese and mouse purse. We them climbed up to Toompea, the 'old' old town.
The view from the top was pretty good - and at that point, Ainsley found her cap. We split as Ainsley wanted to visit a branch of the store we had visited in Copenhagen, while Elsa Mom and I visited a different church, stopped for. Hot chocolate and picked up another few souvioneers. As we did so, Elsa saw her mom walking by the store - so we all made our way back to the ship together.
