EUROPE - 2019 - DAY 66

DAY 66 - AUG 15 - ALYTUS to VILNIUS

It was a long and rewarding day in Lithuania, made more so because it was mostly sunny. There was a nice assortment of beautiful farms, forests, streams, lakes, and churches. And who knew Lithuania had some hills? They were short but added to the fun.

Early into the ride, I was passing through the tiny village of Butrimonys. I saw this fish tank like thing in the town park. It was quite amazing. I took a photo and be sure and watch the video. More info here;

About 15 miles before reaching Vilnius, I passed by a great view of the Trakai Island Castle. The whole area was crawling with tourists or maybe locals. I regret not staying and going inside, but I was smelling the barn. More info here;
