Our idea was to drive up to a high-rise building and to take top-view pictures..... Every residential building has a door code. But actually I do not know, why a system like this gets installed at all! The trick to get in is.... to look carefully at the number buttons and then press the glossy buttons instead of the matte...... this is not only how we got in, but also how bums get into heated buildings, sleeping right in front of your flat door during the nights......
Well, an elevator from 1969......fitting exactly 3 people...... providing an handwritten emergency number to call!!!....... took us all the way up to the 12 floor.... 2 scary and noisy minutes until we savely arrived..... Being nervous and cold made us speak louder and a bit silly too..... Obviously this was to loud for a bum sleeping in the warm corridor next to the elevator we took. So we just quickly took pictures and entered back into the scary vehicle......
Walking the site was quickly done.... for nice walks it was simply to cold! The landscape is so beautiful at a sunny and snowy day like this. But the cold makes you move speedy and without the fun to relax about the wonderful set around you!
When looking at the picture of Reinis (in a warm big jacket) and Dace (in a mini skirt and a short jacket), I am still wondering about female latvian beauty attitudes....... I myself was packed into long trousers..... very unsexy BUT warm..... a big warm jacket, boots, gloves and a scarf wrapping everything else exept my eyes......
Last stop was the daugava river..... beautifully frozen! If the weather will last for a couple of weeks, people will actually cross the river from shore to shore for shortcuts..... some also use the river for sport activities as skiing or skating...... a lot of fun!
