31/03/2008I’m sorry I’ve not had the chance to post for ages. I’m currently up to my neck in wedding planning for my upcoming wedding on the 8th April.
A few weeks ago I was treated by my mates to a stag do in the Latvian city of Riga.
Riga is supposed to be like prague but a bit less developed and a bit less expensive. At least thats what we thought, but erm we were wrong, quite wrong…
The city is quite developed like most parts of Europe, but unlike most parts of Europe it doesn’t share the same prices, prices in Riga are a lot higher that most cities in Europe, being comparable to London and Paris for prices of drinks and eating out. This was quite a shock for most of us, but we still managed to enjoy ourselves and have a real good time.
Here are some pictures:

Hi Dave,
I just heppened to bump into your blog while looking for link echange partners.
Great and fun blogs…keep it up buddy.
…and I wish you and your wife, “wonderful years ahead”
Seems like you had a great time!
Cool! I’m from Riga
Very interesting that prices are more expensive but income is less than in London or Paris. Latvia is pradox country…. But there are a some places where you could find good prices. Most of bars, restaurants are build for tourists and toursits money is main income for them.
