Dave Matke said… - Sveika, Marina !
Great to hear from you !
Yes, I will be going to Lithuania this September 2nd , and will be staying in Kaunas at a friends house. There are so many places I want to see and lucky for me I will have a few friends to share it all with out there. The highlight for me will be going to the Hill of Crosses and hanging the cross I made in honor of my father. This trip has been a life long dream of mine and to say I am excited is an understatement for sure !
By all means, please send me any ideas of sights to see, info etc.. for traveling there.
Thank you so much !
Dave

The huge cloud of volcanic ash that is causing all the problems can not be seen with the human eye, it must be detected with instraments. This is one reason it is causing so many problems for aviation. The only place where you can actually see it and where the sky is gray is in Iceland south of the volcano itself. This is where the volcanic ash is to big and heavy to be carried up into the atmosphere. North of the volcano the skies are clear in Iceland. Here in Lithuania we have had a string of clear sunny days.

- Hi Les, thanks so much for posting those great photos! I have approved them all so they are now on your page, and I have selected a bunch to be featured on the front page of the site. These are beautiful photos! And nice to get winter scenes, we don't have any from the other members. I would someday like to be in Vilnius on New Year's. Did they have fireworks as usual?
I will be in Vilnius later in March as well. I have a lot of plans of interviews, photo and video projects. What else do you like to do when you're there, other than take great photos??
Cheers!
Marina
