More Pics from Vilnius
I worked my ass off today, but still it wasn't enough. Luckily, some of my work didn't have to be online. But since I was pressed for time, I stayed close. At first I went to the Radisson SAS and thought about working in their glass patio dining, but the menu was posted in the foyer and entrees were in their 30 litas and up. That's before drinks and dessert. I had enough, but thought I could do better. So, I kept walking, and ended up in a lovely cafe with a nice view of the Philharmonic building. Something sort of like pizza, but not, a coca light, still water, and a coffee came to 18lita = $6.
The best part was trying a new route. I like walking down new streets to see what's there. It's hard to get lost because you just point yourself in the right direction, and sooner or later there's going to be a church steeple in the sky for you to guide yourself with. Here is a park I found on this semi-directed ramble towards the cafe.
And here are a few pics from yesterday. I took a 15lita cab each way to get to one of the first Lithuanian "themed" restaurants. It was loaded with Lithuanian homestead furniture, tools, and antique appliances. It also had the oldest Lithuanian bike. I took notes in my Moleskine for a future travel article, and ate my meal out of a hat. I ordered my beer in a boot in honor of my frineds at BootsnAll Travel.
