Story Transcript:

Lv: Vienā jaukā vasaras dienā Laima, Andris un Juris devās ekskursijā uz Rundāles pili, lai apbrīnotu tās lielisko arhitektūru un bagātīgo vēsturi.
En: On a lovely summer day, Laima, Andris, and Juris went on a trip to Rundāle Palace to admire its magnificent architecture and rich history.

Lv: Saule spīdēja spoži, putni dziedāja un draugu kompānija bija gaidīšanas pilna piedzīvojuma un atklājumu.
En: The sun was shining brightly, birds were singing, and the company of friends was filled with anticipation of adventure and discovery.

Lv: Ierodoties Rundāles pilī, visi trīs bija pārņemti ar tās greznību un plašumu.
En: Upon arriving at Rundāle Palace, all three were captivated by its grandeur and vastness.

Lv: Skaisti apgādāti dārzi un plašais parks bija kā no citiem laikiem.
En: Beautifully landscaped gardens and the extensive park seemed like something from another time.

Lv: Laima bija interesējusies par pils vēsturi un stāstīja Andrim un Jurim par dažādiem interesantiem faktiem, kurus bija izlasījusi pirms ekskursijas.
En: Laima, curious about the history of the palace, shared with Andris and Juris various interesting facts she had read before the excursion.

Lv: Andris, kurš vienmēr bija pazīstams ar savu rotaļīgumu un spēju iekļauties jebkurā sarunā, izšķīrās no pārējiem un devās aplūkot pils iekštelpas.
En: Andris, known for his playfulness and ability to engage in any conversation, separated from the others and went to explore the interior of the palace.

Lv: Kā viņš tā stāvēja un apskatīja vienu no senajām statujām, kas rotāja pils dzīvojamās telpas, viņam radās neparasta ideja.
En: As he stood there, looking at one of the ancient statues that adorned the palace's living spaces, an unusual idea came to him.

Lv: Andris nolēma jokot un sāka sarunu ar marmora statuju, it kā tā būtu īsta persona.
En: Andris decided to joke and started a conversation with the marble statue as if it were a real person.

Lv: "Gardais rīts, vai ne?
En: "Beautiful morning, isn't it?"

Lv: " viņš teica, gaidot atbildi.
En: he said, waiting for a response.

Lv: "Kā jūtas, stāvot te visu dienu, apskatot mūs, mirstīgos?
En: "How does it feel to stand here all day, looking at us mortals?"

Lv: "Laima un Juris, kas atgriezās pie Andra pēc dārzu apskates, ieraudzīja šo ainu un nevarēja turēt atpakaļ savas smieklu brāzmas.
En: Laima and Juris, returning to Andris after touring the gardens, witnessed this scene and couldn't hold back their bursts of laughter.

Lv: Laima klāsām smejas, kamēr Juris aizrāva roku savai mutei, lai apslāpētu savus smieklu skaņas.
En: Laima laughed out loud while Juris covered his mouth to stifle his laughter sounds.

Lv: Andris, pamanot savu draugu reakciju, apjuka un saprata savu nelielo slikto izjoku.
En: Seeing his friends' reaction, Andris became flustered and realized his little bad joke.

Lv: "Ak, es tikai gribēju nedaudz izklaidēties," viņš paskaidroja, vaigiem sārtojoties.
En: "Oh, I just wanted to have a little fun," he explained, blushing.

Lv: "Pilnīgi brīnišķīgi," Laima teica starp smiekliem, "tu tikko uzrunāji marmoru!
En: "Absolutely wonderful," Laima said amidst laughter, "you just addressed the marble!"

Lv: "Draugi turpināja atklāt pilis slēptākus stūrīšus, tagad ar vēl vienu vietējo leģendu, kuru viņi varētu stāstīt – par Andri, kurš sarunājās ar statuju.
En: The friends continued to uncover hidden corners of the palace, now with an additional local legend they could tell — about Andris, who conversed with a statue.

Lv: Dienas beigās Andris jau varēja smieties par savu izgājienu, pievienojot to savu jautro stāstu kolekcijai, un Laima ar Juri joprojām izsmēja katru reizi, atceroties šo neparasto notikumu.
En: By the end of the day, Andris could already laugh about his escapade, adding it to his collection of funny stories, and Laima and Juris continued to laugh every time they remembered this unusual event.

Lv: Un tā, reveransējot pils statuām, viņi atstāja Rundāles pilī, pilni ar skaistiem skatiem prātā un sirdīs, kā arī nedaudz vieglākas komēdijas, lai padarītu viņu ceļojumu neaizmirstamu.
En: And so, paying their respects to the palace's statues, they left Rundāle Palace, filled with beautiful memories in their minds and hearts, as well as a bit lighter comedy to make their journey unforgettable.
