Trip Across Eastern Europe DAY #2
We slept in a little bit this morning. Then we got up, had breakfast, and took off to the grocery store where we withdrew some Latvian money and bought groceries for the week. After we got back and had some lunch, Cheryl took us to the beach which is just a short walk from her house. There we walked along the Baltic Coast, scanning the water’s edge for any amber that had washed up on shore. All we really found were some pretty-colored sea shells, which the girls had fun playing with. Then we headed up toward a walking path that is lined with many small shops. The kids got some ice cream while we got lattes. We found out how to so thank you in Latvian from the girl who made the coffee for us. Then we hung out on some steps, drinking our coffee and listened to two girls play instruments for money along the walking path. Came back and grilled up some chicken, ribs and sausages and hung out with another couple who are friends of Cheryl’s. We had a great day of relaxation and fellowship.
