Fishermen


In Latvia, our hotel was right by a little river leading to the ocean. On side of the bridge, it was a fast moving water, but on the other side of the bridge, parts of the river were frozen over. just PARTS. Would you go walking out onto that ice? Most peple would say no. Most people would just laugh. BUT what if you were drunk on Vodka, and only in town for one month out of the year--the only time you can fish a particular, tiny little fish in this one river? Then you wuld have a party on the ice... for days. Little lanterns, lounge chairs, poking holes in the ice with whatever you can find... fishing... oh and being drunk on Vodka. I am told these are not Latvians, but a bunch of Lithuanians.
Crazy Eastern Europers.
