The Sights of Dublin!

... to coastal suburbs. Public Transportation is pretty good in the city, but a Dublin car hire is your ticket to enjoying the incredible sea coast. The best places to visit in Dublin include the famous Dublin Castle, the Custom House, and the National Museum of Ireland. Come to these places and enjoy the rich history of this city and country. Dublin is a historically wealthy place and it is obviously apparent in the ...

Cruising the Baltic Sea

... that I didnt have more time. Another reason to come back I guess. :) I booked a ferry from Riga to Stockholm. Went back to the hostel to chill until my departure, was cornered by that annoying Swede businessman, was bored out of my mind by the conversation and looked at my watch, which said 3:00. I looked up and the clock said 4:00. I was like, haha, that clock is off! I bet you know what happens next. I called a cab for 3 LV and rushed to the ...

Another day, another country

... Not so keen on the cabbage but still woof it down. Travelling is hard work. I've gone through the fish on offer; cod, pike, butterfish, sole.. All very tender and tasty as done in local herbs. I haven't tried the salmon yet as always the most expensive. Non fish attempts have been pancakes, and buckwheat. The later was a bit bland, with only some mushroom sauce on top. I needed to pinch some of poor old Viggo's beetroot to make it a bit more interesting. Still with Lithuania ...

Rîga, August 21, 2005 - Sunday

... this was where the Brothers' Grimm fairy tales would probably feel most at home. And this was where my feet felt at their most reluctant to move on. Probably the most impressive building on the square, a real gem there, was the ornate House of Blackheads, first mentioned by sources in 1334 as the New House of the merchants of the Large Guild and the unmarried merchants, so-called Brotherhood of Blackheads, who later, in 1713, purchased the building and became its proprietors ...

A week in Riga

... A broad avenue lead out of the old city to the central district and where it crosses the park is the tall and elegant Freedom Monument topped by a bronze woman "Milda" holding three stars aloft. The Central District had broad streets and tall buildings and plenty of traffic. In part of the Central District there was a fascinating area called the Art Nouveau District which, according to UNESCO, houses the best collection of that style of architecture ...

... a major transportation hub and is the center of the local road and railway system. Most tourists travel to Riga by air via Riga International Airport, the largest airport in the Baltic states, which was renovated and modernized in 2001 on the occasion of Riga's 800th anniversary. Air traffic at the airport has doubled between 1993 and 2004. Baltic sea ferries connect Riga to Stockholm, Kiel and Lübeck. Riga was also home to two air bases during the Cold War: Rumbula and Spilve.

Latvia-Letonia

Riga, Letonia Con la excusa de tener que cambiar nuestras visas de turistas por visas de trabajo, tuvimos que salir de Rusia por algunos días para visitar uno de los consulados rusos en el extranjero. La escuela donde trabajamos nos dio tres opciones a escoger: Kiev en Ucrania, Tallin en Estonia o Riga en Letonia. Escogimos Riga, y a las 7:10 pm del miércoles 1ro de noviembre del 2006, abordamos el tren nocturno en la estación de Riskaya, al norte de Moscu. El viaje ...

Riga and CNN

... And of course along with progress comes CNN International News. I pushed the On button on the remote control. In just thirty minutes I learned so many things I wished I hadn't: The Pakistani President joked yesterday along with U.S. President George W. Bush that the CIA had earlier threatened to bomb the daylights out of Pakistan if they didn't become the US's new best friend. For the first time in history a U.S. President will visit Estonia, Latvia's Baltic neighbour ...

Stags and carpetbaggers

... the world's forth largest organ. We took the church elevator the seventy two meters to the top of St. Peter's spire, destroyed and rebuilt often in its eight hundred years of existence. We strolled by the main square, with the shiny new House of Blackheads, reconstructed in 2000 according to its original medieval plans. Used from 1344 onward by the guild for unmarried foreign merchants, the House was demolished by Soviets during the occupation but ...
