Into the Latvian Woods
Jul/23/2008 22:38
I had told my mother that I would like to get out
of Riga and experience the Latvian forests, maybe
something mystical or at the least one with
mushrooms. My mother mentioned it to Sandra and
Maris and they decided on a historical manor and
forest near the sea in the Vidzeme Region.
Sandra, Maris, Gustavs, Ilze, Graeme, Lenore, my
parents and I visited the manor and then walked
over an hour mostly along a nice wooden plank
path to the Bay of Riga and back. The wildflowers
and ferns were amazing and the sea was refreshing
and calm. After our long walk we rewarded
ourselves at a nearby tavern. It was a great and
beautiful day.
