Another drive of about an hour got us from Haapsalu to Virtsu. We made it straight to the ferry terminal, to get ready for the ferry over to the island of Muhu. Some did use the opportunity for a quick lunch in the cafeteria in the ferry terminal – others made use of the excellent canteen on the ferry (that had even had a delicious juniper beer by the Muhu craft beer brewery in stock).

From the museum it was across the Väinatamm on to Kuressaare on the neighboring island of Saaremaa – just in time for dinner (and a good portion of gull poo making a landing right on myself on the way to the restaurant).
