GROW's Lisa Julius explores tourist attractions in Tallinn while her husband is in town.

Tallinn is waking up from her winter rest. All around, there is a flurry of activity...the umbrellas are going up on the cafes, new activities and stands are setting up in anticipation of the tourists and the flowers are starting to bloom.
