The Great Escape - The Heavens Open
... ever closer to our pockets, suddenly sprinted off when a policeman appeared around the corner. That city really is nightmarish. Getting onto our minibus was a relief to say the least.
Kaunas too was a pleasant surprise. We had heard from a few travellers that it was much quieter and less exciting than Vilnius but our first impressions of the place couldn't have been more different. A vast long street, completely straight and lined with trees forms the centre of the ...

Esimesel korrusel on pimedad pildid tundmatutest leedu inimestest, siis leiab ka peategelase. Pildid on sürrid, loomise ajal mőjusid ilmselt tőesti häirivalt. Aga mulle meeldib. Ka praegu oleks ilmselt suht originaalne maalida öist metsa vői surnuaeda. Jääb meelde triptühhon Rex. Vaikselt tekib lootus, et kui piisaval hulgal ...
New day new city.
... Jewsof Kaunas, largely taken from the city's Jewish ghetto, were transported to the Ninth Fort and killed. In addition, Jews from as far as France, Austria and Germany were brought to Kaunas during the course of Nazi occupation and executed in the Ninth Fort.

Onwards to the capital....
