#46 Riga, Latvia

And now for the final edition of Sue's Nautical Adventures (or is it...?).

So I'm just back from a cruise to Riga, which is the capital city of Latvia. Once again we only had a few hours in Riga, and once again the highlight was the old town! Here are some pictures:




Lido food!

The food in Riga was really cheap, we got a big meal at a place called Lido in the old town for about €10! We also found a really nice pancake place in the old town too, it was super cheap and although I don't know the name, it has a chef statue with a pancake outside so it can't be that difficult to find!

The old town seemed a little run down in parts (paint peeling on boarded up houses) and I found it wasn't as charming as Tallinn in Estonia.
