On July 4th, all of us (Mamma, Uzair, Hafsa, Asma) boarded Turkish Airlines plane in Karachi to start our journey to Latvia - for visiting our Vecmamma. The journey was long: the flight from Karachi to Isanbul took 5 hours, then 6 hours waiting time in the airport, and then 3 more hours of airtime on a flight to Latvia. Below you can see us in Istanbul Ataturk International Airport, while waiting for our connection flight.
In Latvia, we were received by Māra aunty, our mother's sister, who, according to good Latvian traditions, gifted us a bouquet of sweetpeas flowers, which smelled really sweet. Latvians give flowers on every occassion - it is the most commong gift in Latvia. Māra aunty took us from the airport straight to Vecmamma's home, where she received us with hot dinner. :)
