After the walking tour and chocolate-making class concluded, we headed out on our own, in search of parts of Tallinn we haven't yet seen. But first, that church again!

As we left Tallinn, we noticed this boat catching up fast to us, then pulling very close to us. What was he doing? He then pulled up right next to our ship, a small door on our ship opened, and a man stepped out the door onto this small boat. Evidently he was on board to pilot us out of the channel into open sea.
