To Market, To Market, NOT Buying a PIG!

Rainy Saturday in Riga here.  Off to the massive Central Market in the city - hundreds of vendors in stalls and inside 4 huge old aircraft hangars.  Could live without spending too much time in the one dedicated to more meats than I knew existed - including the pig head staring at me forlornly as I turned one corner.  No pics because Bryan saw a "no cameras" sign somewhere and was following rules - phooey!  Guess you'll have to come and see it for yourselves.

Now the bread and baked goods - okay, could stay there all day!  Just the smells make a person add pounds!  Finally found the grape tea a friend recommended too.

Vitaly says, "Dad, you love Mom, you buys flowers!"  Good thinking, son :)  And what a selection!


rainy day activities...computer, music, supper with friends....
at Piranha Pizza (Tabitha - yum!! Good suggestion!)



We also enjoyed a family movie this afternoon - Peterson Kino (theater) was so cozy however, that Mom and Vitaly saw maybe 5 minutes of Hugo before passing out.  Dad says it is a very good show though :)  Have to take his word on that....

Turning clocks back tonight, so we'll be 7 hours ahead of America then.  Good night friends!

MESSAGE FROM VITALY:  Hello. How are you?  What you doing?
