The hills of Latvia
... and don't want the big city, Kuldiga might be our town of choice. It's full of nice wooden buildings, it is not yet completely renovated and there are hardly any architectural sins: no big Soviet apartment blocks, no factories in the city center, not to many empty spaces with garbage or ruins of houses. The opposite: there were nice parks, some rivers, charming streets and squares. Really very nice and looking very at ease ...
On the way to Latgale
Today is the second rainy day we've had during this trip. We ate an early breakfast and packed the car for our trip to Latgale.

... with St. Peter, the entire estate ended in hands of city of Sigulda. The park and gardens around this neogothic-style castle are open for public, but the building itself is not. So I saw what there was to see, and then moved on. New Sigulda Castle was on a hill, and on another, over there across the river, I saw the orange, or red-brown, Turaida Castle towering above the green sea of trees. This recently reconstructed medieval castle looked fairly close and ...
