Last day in Lithuania

Today's our last day here, we're heading out on a train tomorrow to Riga and then on to Frankfurt. We didn't get to head out to the country yesterday as we hoped, but we did get to visit the TV Tower in Vilnius, the highest point in the city. We also hit the top of Giedemas Hill, a medieval tower at the top of the highest hill in Vilnius.

Many, many photographs were taken yesterday. I'm hoping to post the best on our Flickr account when we get back. There are a plethora of Italian restaurants and cafes here (apparently the current trend) but we had lunch at one in the business district. We were a bit concerned since the place was practially empty but the pizza is Italian style and Rachael's risotto was excellent.

After a long day of walking we visisted our local supermarket-type store and bought some beers and some snacks. To any business-minded individuals, the snack food market here has vast room for improvement. You could really clean up here. The beer is quite good.

We vegged out for a while and watched a marathon of MTV while drinking and snacking. We were going to sit on our balcony and drink our beer and eat our snacks but it was to damn cold. Some quiet time inside was especially nice when we figured out how to turn on the radiator. I figured everybody here liked it to be 65 degrees inside.
