Drinks


From what I can see this corner shop in Maskachka intention is to inform potential customers in three languages they are selling drinks. The funny part is the Russian bit - "napitki", because Russian language is using Cyrillic alphabet, "napitki" would probably make no sense to the Russian visiting Riga.

  1. Fascinating. Nice shot with the people blurred and the shop sharp! Probably a good place to get out of the cold.

  2. Is there any particular reason to not use the Cyrillic?

  3. Very likely the law allows Latvian only - not 100% sure
