Tsarevich

Well, this is the first time I've used a cirillac keyboard..
So, welcome to Latvia.  The coach to the airport in Stockholm cost me 12 pounds... the bus to the centre of Riga cost me one euro.  And I think that's some difference.
The bus brought me through the Russian area; block after block of towers living quarters.. high rise blocks, low rise blocks... OMG,  I wondered what I had let myself in for.
The part of Riga where FuntimeFrankie's Hostel is is the old town and that is ok.
Have signed up for a free walking tour tomorrow to get my bearings... then I'm going to a Russian firing range where I'm gonna let loose with an AK47.
Just another day.
Am rooming with two young ladies from Spain and Canada and a Spanish guy.
Am fine.  Stockholm was wonderful, loved it.  Need to go back when its just a bit colder...
Have had two local beers... maybe time for another...
