Cesis, Latvia
Seems the theme of our Latvian vacation is coming up churches and castles! After a night in Riga we took a train two hours north to Cesis, Latvia. Our time in this city has turned out to be the best couple of days we have spent thus far! We explored a medieval castle and church and spent time enjoying the old town. Our hotel was in the heart of the old city - our travel agent Rhonda did a great job pulling this trip together. We traveled back to Riga on Thursday and we will spend a few days exploring Riga before traveling back to Estonia.
Wowie...looks like you are all having a super time! Very hot, humid here!

I'll keep peeking in here to see your adventures! Thanks for sharing! Miss y'all.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a great adventure so far! Stumbled upon this article and thought of you: https://archinect.com/news/article/150068160/estonia-is-the-first-country-to-offer-free-public-transit-nationwide
ReplyDeleteGreat to hear from you! Thanks for the article. There seems to be a lot of progressive ideas and projects here. It's so cool to be here. Kersti Kaljulaid, the President of Estonia has moved her office to Narva College (the College where I work) for two weeks. She spoke today. I was about three feet away from her. I didn't get to meet her, but I'm going to try again this week! A woman from Kazakhstan's Nazarbayev Intellectual Schools spoke today about multilingual education in Kazakhstan as a model for Estonia. Fascinating.
