Hi
We are looking for some place to go in Europe between Xmas and New Years Eve for a couple of days, and where we have a good chance of snow.
We were thinking of Riga but I just wanted to see whether this is a good time of year to go. Are there likely to be many shops, restaurants and attractions open at this time if year?
And is the weather likely to be too cold /dark and dull for us to be able to get out and about to see everything during the day?
Are the any day trips people good recommend to get out in the countryside and into nature? Preferably with snow!
