Outing to Birštonas
July 24 in Lithuania ⋅ ⛅ 19 °C
What a great present we got from our family: a two-night stay at Vytautas Mineral SPA, while the kids stayed in Joniškis with grandparents and Tetulytė. On the way there, we passed through the Hill of the Crosses to thank for the blessings of the first 10 years of marriage. We managed to rest, walk through the greeneries, meet Monika and Remi and do a small Nemunas tour on a boat.Read more

Bee museum and end of the road trip
July 21 in Lithuania ⋅ ☀️ 27 °C
The last day of the trip was very rich. We started with a visit to the Bitininkystės museum - an in-depth view on the life of bees and how hives are made and maintained and how honey is collected.
We stopped in Gynučiai for lunch and to have a refreshing bath in the waterfall.
We then went to Anykščiai for a short visit to dėdė Kęstas in the old charming sodyba, collected a few black currants, played with the kids, and sayed goodbye to the cousins. Both kids arrived asleep to Joniškis after such long day.Read more

A day in the nature
July 20 in Lithuania ⋅ ⛅ 22 °C
After having some fun in the camping, we went for an educational walk in the forest. Alisa discovered the wild blueberries and wanted to pick them and eat them all the way. We also managed to buy some large amount of mushrooms freshly picked which we ate a couple of days later.
We then went to Ladakalnis for another walk and we meet Akvilė there. The evening program went to an end with a swim in the Gynučiai waterfall.Read more

We celebrated Alisa's birthday on the road but in great company! We managed to get a suitable spot in a spacious restaurant in Zarasai, where we could also eat the tasty birthday cake that Neringa made.
Before going to sleep to the beautiful camping site, we managed to visit and pray in a nearby site where Mother Mary had appeared in the 1960s.Read more

Ilzenbergo dvaras
July 18 in Lithuania ⋅ ☁️ 18 °C
On the 17th we started our road trip on the northeast of Lithuania with our family - Milda and Gytis, Senelis, Močiutė, Tetulytė, Gintaras with the family and also Agne's parents for a couple of days.
We arrived to Ilzenbergo dvaras, a farm from 16th century, with a palace from late 19th century which had been recently renewed and had farming and winery business. It was located at the border with Latvia. In fact, its lake was neutral territory in between the two countries and had a little island called the Island of Love.
We got an educational tour in the morning, where we saw the farm animals, the vineyards and the insides of the palace. We also got a degustation and we had a lunch together to celebrate our 10th wedding anniversary to come.Read more

Village life in Joniškis
July 12 in Lithuania ⋅ 🌧 16 °C
We were lucky enough to fly safely to Riga, where senelis was waiting for us. We had a warm welcome in Joniškis and we had a few days of slowed down life, picking cherries, strawberries, redcurrants, tomatoes and cucumbers. Kids enjoyed being in this environment, playing with the shops or helping with watering the plants, and we parents could also relax a bit and delegate the child care to all helping hands.Read more

Back to Barcelona
July 9 in Spain ⋅ ☀️ 29 °C
The last morning in the cruise was one for early birds - we were asked to leave our cabin by 08:00. Everything went smooth, besides a rather lengthy wait for the bus. The surprise for us waited: grandma had COVID-19 and we decided to go and stay somewhere else to be able to stay healthy to fly to Lithuania. We still managed to visit Oriol and his family and also meet Macia with his girlfriend Marisol finally having moved there from Mexico.Read more

Marseille
July 8 in France ⋅ ☀️ 29 °C
A short stop in Marseille was the last one before returning to Barcelona. The cruise left us quite far from the city center, so we took a convenient shuttle bus to there. We arrived to the impressive marble cathedral and we walked around the port and some shopping streets. It was actually quite cute, we bought there some soaps - how not? - and had a big portion of moules frites, which Alisa enjoyed very much. The last evening in the cruise we were gifted with a beautiful sunset on our balcony.Read more
