Walking around Vilnius

Vilnius is a great walking city and there is a lot to see here so planet at least two or three days, three nights, so you have time to relax and see what’s going on. I was lucky to be there during the new year even though it was snowy and cold. The people in Lithuania are extremely friendly and love talking with other people so you will most likely never have a problem there that can’t be taken care of easily. Taxi transportation is not expensive and the buses are tap to pay so it’s easy to get around.

This is the central area near the palace and the main cathedral where people gather even in the cold winter
In the early morning it was not only humans walking around.
This is one of the small stations on the way out of the city
Just like in France they have decided to put a piano for people to play music and I was surprised how professional many of the people who played it were
This was a really excellent restaurant
The pork was extremely well done and tender, juicy and the pickled cabbage was very nice
Even Monaco has an embassy here

The Christmas tree in the plaza was a major attraction
The Murray go round in daytime

When it’s available I find a candle in every church I go into and remembrance of my family

These are popular in Japan but this is the first one I’ve seen outside of Japan, a cat café
When I first walked by there was one cat walking on the table

Senior citizens get a significant discount on trains so I took advantage of first class and I got a free cup of coffee and a brownie, very tasty
