We've been in Riga for a little over 24 hours now and are starting to get acclimated to our surroundings and the way things work.
We slept until noon this morning so I guess we had some pretty serious jet lag :) After we got up we walked to the center of Riga to a place called Marika to exchange some currency. We did a little at the airport yesterday but the exchange rate is better at this place. Here's a photo of some Latvian money (lats)
The architecture here is really cool too. I'm going to take some more pictures later but here are a few I snapped on our walk to Old Riga this morning.
This was breakfast at a little bakery we found. Danny had a chocolate croissant with a toffee type spread inside and I had a cherry danish and a coffee. Both were very yummy.

Snow and more snow. Did I say there was snow?
Daina is coming shortly and will be taking us to the orphanage to meet the girls so I will do another post on that later.
We are considering a vacation home here :) Maybe for families coming to adopt? LOL. Wouldn't that be cool!
