Typical beach on Saaremaa, with lots of flat stones. Another typical feature of these beaches is that many people build towers in various shapes and sizes of the stones, to leave their own mark on the beach.

This photo is taken in Tagaranna, in the north-east part of Saaremaa.

This deserted and destroyed village is situated near Karujarve lake in the western part of Saaremaa. Nowadays the name of the village is Karujarve, but during the Soviet times the village was called Dejevo. At that time it was used as a large military camp, but now there are only ruins left.

Stephen was fascinated by the destroyed buildings, and spent quite a long time walking around in them and trying to figure out what the different buildings had been used for. Malin and Miranda stayed mostly outside, since they were afraid to be buried under some falling bricks.
