weekend adventures part 2

On Saturday second group of volunteers left Stelpe to visit Open Air Museum in Pedvale. On the way we stopped to explore smaller towns like Iecava, Jelgava and Tukums - they were all very beautiful and charming. 
We spent the night camping at the museum and we woke up surrounded by huge paintings and sculptures. The museum is set on 100 hectares territory on a hill. Pieces of art are placed on large meadows, slopes and in the valleys, sometimes they are composed into their natural surrounding, other times they stand out.
This is a one of a kind place for an art museum. It was great fun to get there.
