Riga

Sunday 10th of June

As mentioned earlier, on Thursday evening I went to play some ultimate frisbee with Peltsi and his friends. It felt very nice to run and play after a while. Hopefully I'll get similar opportunities along the way also in the coming weeks. On Friday I went walking around Riga, having a local ”guide” with me. One of Peltsi's coach surfing friends, Viktors from Sweden, gave me a walking tour in the city. It was very nice, because he actually knows the city really well and he showed many places I wouldn't have found by myself. In the evening he threw a house warming -party in his place, so itwas a good Friday.

On Saturday those of us who weren't too tired of the last day's party went to Sigulda. So actually that meant there was me, Linda from Latvia and Andreas from Germany. But we had an awesome day, so it was totally worth it waking up ”early”. I wrote earlier about the Tarzan adventure park in Sigulda, so luckily for me also other people wanted to get there so I had the chance to revisit the place. The basic idea is, that there is an adventure park in a forest, with different kind of routes with different difficulty levels you can choose from. The more difficult the skill level, the more power you need and the higher thr route takes you to the trees. Really, really much fun!

In the evening we came back to Riga and went to see football in a bar. The funny thing is that we didn't have time to go change clothes so we were wearing the same clothes as in the adventure parks. Not that anyone could notice anything, because the pubs were packed of football fans, but still. Esa, if you happen to be reading this, you must feel proud of me at the moment... Today I had a relaxed day with Linda, Peltsi and Kristine. I had an awesome time here in Riga, and actually spent here a bit longer than what originally planned. Thanks especially to Peltsi and Kristine, and also all other great people I met. Today wad time to say goodbye, and tomorrow morning it's time to head for Lithuania Klaipeda.

From this point on, I have no idea how often I manage to get in internet, so in case you don't hear anything from me even in a whole week, Äiti and Isä, don't worry, I'm okay. ;)
