curious place, this one
quick breakfast provided by the hotel and went for a walk
statue of Monument to Grand Duke Gediminas
Vilnius Cathedral - busy
tower thing
Baltic Way Memorial - the granite feet - what an amazing feat.
made me realise today that the people my age and older had really been through some shit - and those younger had lived in the community full of people who had as well - what an incredibly different world we live in, just on the other side of this silly rock
national museum of lithuania
oh gosh the glass everywhere
st florian was cool
the toilet door was super low and the smallest hand dryer I’ve ever seen
the old arsenal - lots of 5th-13th century artifacts
fernicular broken
