Music to our Ears
Riding around the old town we stumbled on the most entertaining buskers that we’ve seen and heard.

Folk Dancers
Here we are in Riga watching these Latvians do a jig or two – Moses got the hang of it, Caspar stood and absorbed it all and Turis and Herbie just enjoyed swinging and jumping up and down and spinning around and around on our arms. Later on in the same park we ended up being interviewed for Japanese TV about Latvian culture!
So why Riga? – We only managed to get transit visas for Russia so decided to fly to Riga/Latvia and will cycle through Baltics to Poland.

Cardboard Sledges and Carousels
For us adults it’s often about finding a beautiful nature spot but the children are always looking forward to exploring new playgrounds like this one in the Golden Gate Park – sliding down the concrete slope on a piece of cardboard or riding round and round on the carousel.
