Today we have 2 big projects :
1. a visit to the castle island of Trakai 2. a meeting with Regita in Kaunas 1. Trakai : the pride of Lithuania, one of the most pictoresque places and an ideal spot to enjoy the panorama. Unfortunately we could not visit the island because they were making a movie, but after some negociations we were allowed to go up to the bridge. 2. Kaunas : last year Frank was supposed to meet Regita te ontmoeten (HC username : Coconut) but because of some turn of fate it didn't work. But these time there was no obstacle... the meeting was warm, we visited a shrine where Ingrid received exceptionally the authorisation to place a candle herself in the chapel. But more about that tomorrow...
We also visited an airplane museum (the history of Lithuanian air travel in 15 minutes...I have never visited a museum in such a short time) and afterwards Regita made us a wonderful meal : cold beetroot soup with potatoes. And then off to bed : why is it that Ingrid can always sleep with our female hosts, but I have to sleep on the floor ? :-(
