What's it like driving on Europe's longest ice road?

Europe's longest ice road stretches across the frozen surface of the Baltic Sea. It's 26 kilometres long, connecting the Estonian mainland with the country's second-largest island, Hiiumaa. It's usually open from late January to late March when the ice is thick enough to carry the weight of vehicles. Director of the island's museum, Toomas Kokovkin, describes the experience.
