Sights near our apartment

The Klaipeda crest on the utility cover.


Some fachwerk--a German style.


A little alley of restaurants near us.





This was installed a few years ago. It says something like, One people, one home, one Lithuania. It is supposed to be a balance of the modern and the traditional. The jagged edge supposedly represents Kaliningrad, which the Lithuanians sort of see as theirs, though, now of course, they don't want it.

Svyturys, the "best beer in Lithuania."



A Lithuanian Soviet Socialist Republic (the six Cyrillic letters that end in "CCP") utility cover.
