Maine


Maine, the northeasternmost U.S. state, is known for its rocky coastline, maritime history and nature areas like the granite and spruce islands of Acadia National Park. Moose are plentiful in Baxter State Park, home to Mt. Katahdin, endpoint of the Appalachian Trail. Lighthouses such as the candy-striped beacon at West Quoddy Head, dot the coast, as do lobster shacks and sandy beaches like Ogunquit and Old Orchard. The Pine Tree State is the official nickname of Maine, earned because roughly 89% of its total land area is covered by forests. This makes it the most heavily forested state in the United States.

Corfu

June 22, 2026

The Old Town of Corfu, on the Island of Corfu off the western coasts of Albania and Greece, is located in a strategic position at the entrance of the Adriatic Sea, and has its roots in the 8th century BC. The three forts of the town, designed by renowned Venetian engineers, were used for four centuries to defend the maritime trading interests of the Republic of Venice against the Ottoman Empire. In the course of time, the forts were repaired and partly rebuilt several times, more recently under British rule in the 19th century. The mainly neoclassical housing stock of the Old Town is partly from the Venetian period, partly of later construction, notably the 19th century. As a fortified Mediterranean port, Corfu’s urban and port ensemble is notable for its high level of integrity and authenticity.

Fat Margaret


Fat Margaret is a tower in Tallinn, nowadays home to Estonian Maritime Museum. The tower was built in the early 16th century during the reconstruction of the medieval city gate system.  Apart from being a fortification against potential invaders to the port of the town, it was also built to impress outside visitors arriving by sea. The tower is a defensive structure at the end of Pikk tänav (Long Street). Together with Suur Rannavärav (the Great Coastal Gate), a sixteenth-century arch flanked by two towers, it served to defend Tallinn's harbor.
