Riga Day 1

---

14 July 2019



A coach took us the 20k into Riga and we spent the day there.



As well as having an old town with a maze of cobbled streets and a selection of churches and other interesting sights, Riga has a district called the Quiet Centre which is full of buildings built in the early 20^th century with audacious highly carved frontages known as Art Nouveau. We had a guided walking tour around both of them.



Our campsite is close to a long sandy beach and in the evening the group celebrated England winning the cricket world cup with a few beers in a beach bar.
