I had a feeling that today will be hectic and I do have to say that my intuition was right. Starting with the fact that we needed to wake up at around 2:15 to catch our cab which took us to the airport. The early waking left the whole group incredibly exhausted and tired so it was the absolute best to just doze off in the cab.

Soon we arrived to the airport where we did our check-in, and headed over to security right after. I was super surprised when I saw that their security machines were top notch, the most modern I've ever seen. It gave me the feeling like o was in a futuristic movie. Due to my own tiredness, I forgot to take my water bottle out of my bag so they had to check my bag. To my shock, the lady working at the security was incredibly sweet and she offered to pour out the water and hand me back my bottle.

At 5:25 we hopped on our flight to Riga, true it was a short ride but enjoyable due to the lack of people, leaving almost the whole plane empty. I have to admit, I feel asleep almost immediately and only woke up when we landed.

At the airport in Riga we needed to hurry through the building because they were closing the gate to our next flight in 10 minutes. Thinking back, it was a pretty funny experience. Luckily we still made it on the flight without missing it. The trip was 1 hour and 40 minutes long, throughout which I slept once more.

Now I keep reminiscing about the trip, how much fun I had and all the things i have learnt over the duration of the last week.
