Ok ok
Here is a pic of the riverside and the boat that we took to get to Jurmala, that is a seaside town, a real "summer town".



Here is a map that shows the boat trip (pink) and the train trip back (brown). The boat trip took 2½ hours and costed 10 euros each and the train took 31 minutes and costed 1,15 euros for two persons!



Here is pics I took from the boat. All the river banks are clean plain sand!





From the little port we walked down the main street:



down to the beach, first seen through the trees:



then the actual beach wiew:



On the way back to the center we saw many cool houses, heres it 2 of them:





These trains runs every 30 minutes between Jurmala and Riga:



Happy now Treena ?

Such a cute lovely town. I wish every corner of the world was like that.

oh thses are great I just love the houses they are cute thanks for posting more pics caysa

Many towns in northern Europe are like that because we have really old buildings and as we have space there are towns that are not built upwards. That makes them cosy

Here are pics from 2 small towns in southern Finland. The first is Porvoo, east to Helsinki and the second one is Naantali NW of Helsinki:

Wow...I would love to just walk around there and 'drink' it all in.

oh those two towns are quaint love the colors on the buildings

Yikes!!! i did write something but forgot to send - trust me...

i'll try and remember what i said... yes i am very happy caysa that you posted many more lovely pics!
Tom remarked the bright colours reflects in their native clothes - is that right?

i love all those jazzy and arty colours on these houses yes it would be very pleasant to walk around there too.

Love that map as it shows clearly where you went by train and the boat... neat pics of landscapes - shops - buildings and even the train looked colourful too!

many thanks for your trouble - you are very lucky to be so close to interesting little countries
