We also visited the Pärnu New Art Museum, which had drawn my attention with an event described on the web - an annual international nude art exhibition. This year was the 18th such exhibition, titled "Man, Woman and Electricity." On display were works executed in various techniques - oil and acrylic paintings, photographs, sculptures, audio and visual performances.
The idea was to stay in a cottage on Estonia's western coast with a sea view, so that on waking in the morning the first thing to catch the eye would be the calm grey-blue of the sea. I found a place online called "Kosmonautika". In Soviet times it was known as the legendary holiday centre "Vzmorje", where distinguished scientists and cosmonauts came to rest, including the first female cosmonaut Valentina Tereshkova.
Honestly speaking, the main reason we went to Tartu at all was to visit the AHHAA Science Centre. There is plenty to do, explore, and observe for adults and children alike. Adults try out all the installations with even greater enthusiasm and genuine joy of discovery.
