Kaunas

After a too long ride from Nida and some rain on the way we arrived in the university city of Kaunas.
As second largest city in Lithuania it is the centre of economic activity and Lithuanian culture. First we had to mess around with the one way streets, than we had to organize a map and finally managed to find the hotel. It was a pleasant surprise to see, that the hotel was a ritzy place and had all the amenities you could think of. I took bath in the bathtub. We took a short stroll, but were already to tired for sightseeing.  
The next day we went to the Trakai Island Castle which is a fairy tell castle, with a museum inside. I enjoyed that very much and recommend to visit it.
