3 1/2 months in Latvia and Going Strong

We have made it 31/2 months here in Latvia now.  We are very glad to get the three months down.  We now have the layout down.  We know what shops we need to go to for groceries, shoes, baggies. meats and have the system laid out since there is no one stop shopping here.  I was very excited this past week because I actually found real brown sugar and whole what tortillas.  We are living big now.  OF course there is no way to shop quickly because of the multiple stores one needs to go to.  We are getting used to it.
School is going very well.  Very busy but very well. We just finished the first quarter and have been on Fall break this past week.  For break we slept in alot and relaxed. We also went to see Turida Castle and Rundale Palace which were amazing.  Following are picture of daily life and random activities.
