So, nachdem wir dann aus Trakai wieder weg fahren sind wir durch die REgenfluten nach Kaunas gefahren. Tomas hat dann abgecheckt wo wer hingeht und dann sind wir durch die Kaunasser Innenstadt spaziert.
Zur Zeit ist Vilnius zusammen mit Wien Kulturhauptstadt Europas. Aus diesem Grund sind Unsummen nach Vilnius geflossen, nicht ganz neidlos an...

Our hostess in Kaunus, Laura, made us very welcome. Her parents-in-law and Grandmother also live there. The kids, particularly Saskia and Eartha went out of their way to endear themselves to everyone. They miss Grandma, so a surrogate set of grandparents was not to be passed over. Nick was well fed before Laura took him to the airport. I got on ...

Tomek suggested I took the route through Alytus to avoid traffic. This seemed sensible, looking at the map. There was a similarly large road running up towards Mariampole on the Polish map I was using. We stopped just before the Lithuanian border for coffee and ice-cream, only to discover the big red road I was supposed to follow did not exist o...

After our difficulties getting into Riga's Old Town, I was a bit apprehensive about our getting out. However once we checked out of the hotel, one of the hotel staff got into the back of the car, directed us to one of the boom gates (to get in & out of the Old Town) - he put a card in to raise the gate & then gave us directions for how to get on...

My next destination in Lithuania was Kaunas, second city of the country in size. In places like Lithuania nothing is too far, so it took me less then two hours on a not too crowded bus to reach Kaunas. Today it was another sunny, clear and warm day, and gradually I was getting used to the fact that even in Lithuania they had a real summer. And i...

Breakfast was served this morning with an amazing peach jam. I couldn't get enough of it; good thing for me Mary didn't want hers. Hopefully our next B&B is as good - the rest of our accommodations in Lithuania are with Litinterp, a chain of B&Bs in this country. As we checked out, I realized that the best thing about Litinterp isn't the...

Today I had a full schedule with the Klovas family, taking a tour of the Old City of Kaunas and seeing a man interested in the Bible and the United Church of God. Henrikas had some urgent business matters to take care of early in the day, so Vijole took me to the Old City, a part of Kaunas I had not seen before. It was very interesting. I remind...

Gday everyone...this story is told by my riding buddy Sam, I have taken the easy way out and just included his story as he did a good job of capturing the details of this weird and scary night...I'll let Sammy get entertain you... Todays title is the Stealth mission so I am going to cut right to it. Our time on the inter net to update the good o...

Uli, Erna, Kaschi and I spend about a two weeks in Lithuania exploring Kaunas and Vilnius together with our Lithuanian friends Mindaugas and Egidius. Its always good to meet natives and experience their hospitality. During our stay we enjoyed lots of good and strange food like tounge sausage. We can highly recommend to drink Lithuanian Vodka as ...
