Last days in Lithuania





Comrades! In the Republic of Uzupis there resides numerous bohemians, which insures interesting cultural expressions. This enclave of Vilnius has its on mayor, currency, and constitution, all legitimate and illegitimate. It allows you to be who ever you are, no questions asked! This hedgehog arrived and was welcomed during a concert by Swedish musicians-artists. Recycling is an option in Lithuania as well as building straw bale structures. Edita (pictured with moi) is director of Straw bale Building Association, an organization promoting straw structures throughout Baltic countries. Other photos are of the Trakai Castle, first built in 1321, destroyed by Germans during war time and later rebuilt for tourist.

Vilnus looks like a great time, sorry you weren't feeling so well there. Can't wait to see where your next adventure leads you.

What a cute hedgehog! That is my totem animal! Lithuania looks beautiful but are you coming home soon? My tomatoes have blight and I need your help planting cacti. I trust no one else.
