Today we are living Vilnius and our next stop is Trakai. But prior we leave this magnificent city few more stops. How can we skip a giant marble cat. NEVER!! You can be found in Jurga Ivanauskaite square.

Nevertheless the place is very energetic and at the same time relaxing. You have a very weird felling walking among all the wooden sculptures and angels dolls.

We are moving further. Braap – braap, Poland is waiting for us with sunny weather 🙂 Finally! Summer!!

Check out the lazy ducks and willows along the channel. A very peaceful place to walk along.

As always after 185 km we are hungry 🙂 Let’s try polish food 🙂 and enjoy the view in a local cafe(there are quite a few of them, but Google saved us. We have done a good choice) Andrej’s soup was awkward (red one). A mix of offal. But main dish saved the evening. 🙂

Let’s walk around, there are few interesting places to see. 🙂 This is not resort town, but it feels like it. 🙂 There are a lot of tourist from Poland. They come here for a day or two to relax and have a boat trip.

If you will stay in this place – ask for a towels or take them with you. 🙂 Because for me it was a problem. 🙂 I couldn’t wash my hairs, so next morning started with shopping 🙂 to get a hat :))
