According to a report in Postimees, when Queen Elizabeth II visits Estonia on October 19 and October 20, she won't just want to meet with the debonnaire Arnold Rüütel (should he be reelected). She'll also want to meet the people of Estonia, you know, the real nitty gritty populace.
Elizabeth only has two days in Eestimaa, but I am sure she can pack a lot into them. If she really wants to get a flavor for Estonians, I am sure that we can discuss ways to connect Her Majesty with everyday Estonians.
For the Tallinn experience, Her Highness could visit a nail salon and inhale fumes for an hour and a half, then get whisked away to the tanning salon for some rest & relaxation. Then later she can dine on dry reindeer meat at Olde Hansa. She can follow that by getting drunk and spray painting the Union Jack all over the Pronkssõdur.
For the country experience, may we suggest a date with Enn at the neighborhood pub in Võhma. They can dine on fried herringas or fried pelmeenid, and, of course, kartulisalat. I'm pretty sure the evening would conclude with a unisex nude sauna, some Gin Long Drinks, and maybe a nude swim in nice boggy Estonian lake. And maybe some berry picking/potato digging.
And that's just for starters. There's a lot of ways Elizabeth II can get to know everyday Estonians. Does anybody else have any suggestions for her itinerary?

A shot of millimallikas at Valli Baar in Tallinn is the only true way to introduce someone to regular estonians. :-)
To Kopli Liinid! Definitely :)
