Why Does My Danby Microwave Keep Beeping

08/03/2009 Baltic Sea coastal route from Cologne to Riga

time to bring us our bike tour to Scandinavia. We are planning to cycle from Riga to Sweden, all along the Baltic coast.

Our flight today should already start at 06:25 (!!!!) clock, we had to absolutely inhumane time of 03:15 out of bed! The hell .... But what will not be anything for a cheap flight with Air Baltic in purchase!

With the car we went off in the direction of Dusseldorf. After all, the highway was about this time free. Then again expect anything spectacular just happened! The wheels were just giving up - without any screw and removal work as a whole, and came again in Riga.

We can not even take our good fortune - all there and nothing broken!


Riga airport is cute. Quite well actually Riga. A Kafijka chasing the next, in between delicious restaurants. The old town is a dream, the people are super nice and helpful. But the best is our hotel "Riverside": 2 nights in a double room and breakfast and do a whole evening alone rented the sauna and for two people together for 50 €!

cafes and sunshine - what more could you want?


In Riga looks like us - all in German!


all friends and relatives are very concerned the way to us: "You can not but go to Russia and the silk with the bike! You crazy?" To one it be clear that Latvia has nothing, absolutely nothing to do with Russia. Above all, you do not come with such a Latvian prejudice. There'll be trouble! This country is small, but the greater national pride!

The National Shrine of Latvia!


morning enjoy a short trip to the coast!

The weather was brilliant and should be even better!
