Old Riga is actually very nice.
There's a beautiful 14th Century Guildhall called the 'House of the Blackheads' right next door to an a lumpen concrete blight on the landscape called the 'Latvian Occupation Museum.' I asked a taxi river about this and he told me that as ugly as the building was, it wasn't nearly as ugly as the occupation itself, which i found interesting.

Later that evening I took a Cypriot ice skating for the first time ever.
