Baltics trip

Plane trail in sky


Walking in the park


Papua New Guinea or Easter Island envy? Or a shrine to the Pagan gods?


National Museum in the New Arsenal. The grotesque statue is, of course, modern and is of King Mindaugas


River and fishing guys


Bridge

We walked a whole round around Gediminas Hill trying to find a way up to see the Castle Tower, but couldn't and so gave up.


Stream


Coins with rulers' heads


Nice little courtyard


"The Wine of the Month: Arrogant Frog", from Languedoc, France. What an appropriate name.


Vilnius building. I forget why it interested me.

We then had some fun with dandelions.

Non-Malaysian Mannikins. Hurrah!
I was very happy because I saw no Malaysian Mannikins in the Baltics.


Something we didn't expect to see - a stretch Limo

Church of the Holy Trinity at night. Do you notice something peculiar about this picture?


Closeups of the All-Seeing Eye on the church building. It seems the Illuminati run this city (and the rest of the Baltics!)
