First impressions in Lithuania

After landing safe and sound I got some money. The local currency is called litas (Lt) and corresponds to approximately one third of the Euro.

Off course, one realizes the language everywhere. Nop! Not Russian but Lithuanian. They have their own language.

With the bus line 1 from the airport I could get into town and to the main bus station. The ticket for a single ride costs 2,5 Lt (0,50 Ct).

Hint: Don't enter the bus with no change money. Everything above 20 Lt is not accepted. In the case you only have a 100Lt note like I did, ask a young nice lady if she can change it for you. It worked!

Now sitting in the bus on the way to Alytus. The ticket for the almost 2 hours journey costs 22,0Lt (approx. 6,3€) and they have WiFi in it.

I keep on moving! Vuuuuush!
Cheers!
