The flowers are blooming and all is so fresh and bright. The sun now comes up early and sets late. It is daylight from before six AM until almost nine PM. What a difference two months can make. The pictures tell the story. It is 6:45 AM local time and I am sitting in my room at the Albert Hotel, drinking coffee with my window open and listening to the birds sing. I went to the airport at 4:30 this morning to try to fly out standby on KLM to Amsterdam and I was told ," this would not be allowed, you must purchase a new ticket," for $1,142. So I decieded it would be better to pay for a hotel room for one more night. I am traveling on Delta from Amsterdam to Atlanta on a "Buddy Pass" generously donated by one of the family from Southern Crescent Church of Christ. Delta does not come to Riga so therefore rhe need to travel to Amsterdam to get home. I have a seat on KLM tomorrow afternoon that is confirmed so if all goes well I should arrive back in PTC on Saturday afternoon.
