The Maritime Sequence--Trakai

Canoes, and more, on Lake Galves, which surrounds the island castle at Trakai.




Trakai is about 15 miles out of Vilnius. It was the palace of one of the Dukes or Grand Dukes at some point--frankly, I'm struggling to keep it all straight. Mostly, it's a very pleasant and relaxing place. It would have been great to go swimming, but we lacked the appropriate attire.
The castle in the picture was rebuilt in the 1960s.
