This day in Vilnius was a split one. For the first half we went by coach to the island castle at Trakai which was about 45 minutes west of Vilnius. It's a beautiful old brick castle that has been wonderfully conserved with lots of interesting exhibits. After visiting the castle we enjoyed a progressive lunch involving two restaurants. At the first we had a traditional item of Kabinas (a pork and potato stuffed pastry not unlike a calzone) and at the second restaurant a very nice chicken noodle soup was enjoyed.
We were also able to view some very old watercraft that were on display. Since the second half of the day was a practice time for the choir, the bus dropped them off at the venue and took the remaining spouses back to the hotel where another spouse, Dan, and I walked to the nearest LIDL discount grocery store. Afterwards I came back and worked on my blog and waited for Angela to return about 9:15pm.
