Vilnius, Lithuania - 22nd July 2012

By: coraline

Hello, mum!
I finally arrived at my new house! I've met Zed Dog, a lovely puppy from England, and now I became friends with Leila! I brought my new friends and my host mum Karolina many presents from Finland. They really enjoyed it!:

Karolina said that it's time to go and see Vilnius! What a great start - we stopped here, next to the fountain:

And this is the Town Hall! Isn't it beautiful?

Here I am near the Barbora Radvilaitė statue. She was Queen of Poland and Grand Duchess of Lithuania as consort to Sigismund II Augustus:

Look! I'm posing in front of one part of the Vilnius University - it is the oldest university in the Baltic states and one of the oldest in Eastern Europe. It is also the largest university in Lithuania:

The Presidential Palace is located in Vilnius Old Town, in 1997 this place became the official seat of the President of Lithuania:

Here is the very famous Cathedral of Vilnius (Vilniaus Šv. Stanislovo ir Šv. Vladislovo arkikatedra bazilika). It's the main Roman Catholic Cathedral of Lithuania. You can also see the Bell Tower! :)

We were going back home and stopped to see the panorama of Vilnius. You can see Gediminas' castle here!

Whoa, that was a great day and I had so much fun with my new mum and my awesome friends! I'm a bit tired now, I guess I should rest for a while.

Love,
Emma Squirrel
