ART DECO HOTEL @PARNU BEACH
Did Chaplin stay here?
DAY FOUR
Returning from Muhu, our last visit was to the resort town of Parnu.It was off season, most places having closed at the end of August.
We actually checked into our lodgings about six miles from Parnu.
We were booked into a surreal compound named Villa Andropov, where
the following day we were scheduled to play our last round of golf in
Estonia. The golf course had recently been opened and showed some
promise, but on rising the next morning we found that the Baltic Fall
weather had finally caught up with us. Neither Elysee nor I was in
any mood for playing golf in 30-knot rain-spattered winds, on a soggy,
recently opened course. Instead we spent the afternoon on a quick tour
of Parnu and a visit to their art museum named after Charlie Chaplin.
Yes, Charlie Chaplin! As you can gather, our visit to Parnu was turning
out to be weird.
My wife and I retired to Naples Florida knowing that we would not stay there during the summer. Our plan is to go to different place each year, one that suits our criteria. We have rented for at least three months in: IRELAND, AUATRALIA/NEW ZEALAND,SLOVENIA, ESTONIA, MEXICO, CARMEL, Ca. (3 times) and presently ANNAPOLIS, Md.
I have published four books about this lifestyle: (They are the basis for my blogs, and are at Amazon.com)
