We arrived the beautiful city of Riga after a short (2.5 hour) flight from Stansted Airport. We discovered a most welcoming and relaxed city, starting with a young lad on the Airport bus. He helped us to work out where our stop would be and told us he has lived most of his life in London. He has now moved back to Latvia which he thinks will be too quiet for him!
Update: the umbrellas look like a market, but are in fact outdoor seating from a restaurant.
Well it looks lovely to me….nice market there too perhaps but I expect after London it would seem quiet…..nothing wrong with that though. How helpful!
