Aerodium

Aerodium in Latvia
Mobile Aerodium in Riga next to Olympia Center in Kipsala.
The price of a short two minute flight is 18 Ls (25 EUR) which, I guess, is slightly expensive.
Have you tried Aerudium? How good it is? :)
check another Aerodium in Sigulda.

Valentine's Day


St. Valentine's Day is being celebrated in Riga just for the last 10-15 years, since Latvia became Western-influenced country.
A lot of lovers express their feeling by gifting flowers or some other other gifts like those Plush toys photographed in Olympia.
I was told a legend, that this holiday was invented by French flower traders especially to increase their sales :)
See also Valentine's Day in 2009.
