Wait, before, this is the funniest thing.
I cannot believe this happened.
So the way we did it is that Jack wrote on two bits of card.
One says, choose our day, and one said, choose our day, but in Latvian, according to Google Translate.
Yeah, so we were just holding these up.
But we realised as we got a couple of hours into the day, we're not sure that the Latvian card's definitely right because he's obviously Googled it.
We start speaking to this lady called Julia and she seems to like the idea and she's like, oh, you need to go up the tower because you can see all of Riga from up there.
And we're like, cool, we'll do that.
And as we walked away, we went, oh, actually, can we just double check that this sign says what we think it says?
And she looked at it and she went...
Proper looks at it.
She went, no, no, no.
She went, that doesn't make sense.
She went, I'm from Germany.
We're not asking you to do that.
We're not saying, like, does this make sense to you?
We're saying, is it Latvian for what we think?
Most of the plaques said this is how they did it in the 1700s.
Oh, I thought it was World War II.
