I did something extraordinary this time. For a change I took a BUS to the dashpoint. Because it was quite easily accessible by bus ;) It was on the outskirts of village Eikla, on a meadow, 160m from a road. I guess the people living in the houses around the meadow must have found it quite weird to see a strange guy just aimlessly walking out there.

After visiting the point, I took a longer walk in nearby forest. When I wanted to take the bus back to town, a bad surprise occurred to me. The bus had either come too early or didn't come at all. Anyway, it didn't show up. And there was 3,5h to the next bus. Which means I walked 3 more hours in the forest :D
I wanted to buy some snack from the village shop before that, but the shop was closed already, because it was after 5pm.

List of noteworthy objects I saw:
a grain harvester
rowans
apples
an abandoned cabin in forest
blackberries
blueberries
lingonberries
an abandoned petrol station
wild strawberries
wild raspberries
a tractor on roadside which trailer had a flat tyre
