Trakai
Just 28km from Vilnius lies this lake with a Castel on an Island it was fantastic..
From Latvia I moved south to Lithuania, first stop was Vilnius. I found Vilnius to be a very clean and assesable. It was also the turing point of the weather. The snow started to stop you could tell cause every one was starting to creep out of their houses for the first time. I spent a few days touring around seeing the sights and the museums then took a day trip to Trakai. Trakai is a small town on a lake with an unbelievable castle on an Island. You can see from the Photo I posted. Also what is a trip to a baltic capitol without going to an Occupation Museum and a KGB Prison. Both of which I found to be very depressing and intersting at the same time as would most I guess.

Ok, I am a little behind (just 2 1/2 months thats all).. That just means I am having a good time.. Right??? I am now in Thailand and having a ball eating all sorts of crazy things and taking my time to see the sights. I even did some scuba diving which was a real highlight. At this point I have been away for over 9 months and have only a few left. Where did the time go? That just means I have to get up-to-date before I move on again. Hope everyone is doing well. Be sure to add comments on the photos its always fun to read them. ... full info
