What? Kas? Что?

mono-lingual, but trying to learn Latvian and Russian

we make it look easy, right?

Theater: The Mysterious Island movie since no Alvin and the Chipmunks today.  Good choice for us - action, humor, teens who like each other.  English, but Russian and Latvian subtitles.  Hard to focus with three languages going at once!  Don't know how he does it???  Thought we'd show you an example with the thoughts below....

tri-lingual!  all three of these make sense to him

Подсказка для будущего Латвии путешественников: если отчаянно нуждается вванной, когда в город автобусной станции центра, есть удобный "WC" знаком с очень хорошей женщине, которая позволит вам использовать ее. Имейте в виду,хотя - вы должны иметь эквивалент 40 центов, или она не так охотно. Кроме того, после передачи денежных средств, не забывайте о р который находится направом боку. Вы развернуться, что вам нужно и взять его с собой. В противном случае, вы идете без него! 

Tip turpmākai Latvijas ceļotājiem: ja izmisis par vannasistabu, kad pie pilsētas centrāautoostas, tur ir parocīgs "Tualete" zīmi ar ļoti jauku dāmu, kas ļaus Jums izmantot viņas.Lūdzu, ņemiet gan - jums ir jābūt ekvivalentu 40 centus vai viņa nav tik gatavs. Arī pēcnododot naudu, neaizmirstiet TP kas atrodas pie viņas labajā pusē. Jūs atritināt, kas jums nepieciešams, un ņemt to ar Jums. Citādi jums iet bez!

Tip for future Latvia travelers:  if desperate for a bathroom when at city center bus station, there is a handy "WC" sign with a very nice lady who will let you use hers.  Please be aware though - you must have the equivalent of 40 cents or she isn't so willing.  Also, after handing over the cash, don't forget the t.p. which is located at her right side.  You unroll what you need and take it with you.  Otherwise, you go without!  


Got the idea?? :)

Out for supper...Note to self: love the Lido restaurant pancakes, but skip the Kravass drinks.  Tastes like I am chugging vinegar.  Tried, but can't do it.

Gary and Jana Brumels have been a huge blessing!  Love that they are in the same building with their son, Alex.  The boys are having guy time, but we get parent time too.  These two boys are a riot!  Tonight we played Wii and Phase 10 after dinner.  Court tomorrow - be praying please.

Love from Latvia,

Sue, for Bryan and Vitaly too
