- It was a later 10:00 am docking so we were able to see the process happening. There was a pilot rope that they threw out that men on the land were able to pull in the big ropes with and that was done front and back of the ship. There was a band that showed up to play music for people as they were off loading. We were still on our deck watching that all happen. Then we walked into town. There are many similarities between the last two Baltic states as one can be expected. This geographical region is pretty small. One thing that really stood out where how many dogs here in this town. I took pictures of several of them but there were many many more I was not able to take a picture of. We stopped at the fat cat for some tea while they were having the beer tasting for the people from the ship. We got to a small park that had a large display case. Within the display case we're scenes from ancient Lithuania. I only took a couple pictures but the amount of work putting that together was hard to fathom.
Quaint houses we saw on the way in
This is located on a very long very thin section of land that is a national park
The pilot who comes on board to make sure we do everything correctly
He's a real stand-up guy
They played for about an hour as people disembarked
Pulling the lines from the ship to the shore
Heve ho heve ho
We walk through the marina to get into town
A very cool overhang
Towers of flowers
They put the hobble in cobblestone they were large and loose and difficult to navigate through
Flowers on the balconies
Ancient Lithuania as represented by plastic figurines
We were trying to decipher each domestics setting and or activity going on for each one of these dioramas
I think this one is a big fish story
Trying to impress the ladies
A large refurbished sailing vessel
Looks very nice here in the river
Another interesting doorway
The Fat Cat did not help us keep the pounds off
Play off two different styles of architecture
