Last Day in Vilnius

Sorry I have been so quiet on the blog. I have spent an unexpected
week in London, with my good and old friend Maria, and that combined
with the fact that wireless is shit in London-- has kept me occupied
and distracted from chronicling my adventures. I will write a bit
about London, but let me first finish Vilnius.

After a rather crappy few days there, I decided to employ the last few
hours had before my plane in seeing the best parts of the city. I had
spoken with many people, and was told that the KGB museum was not to
be missed. I got up early with the plan to see early Sunday mass in
the Dome Cathedral, a quick stop to see the bust of Frank Zappa (a
quirky Vilnius homage to a favorite artist of mine), to walk to
Uzupius (an artist's republic set up by a group of squatters that has
it's own passports and constitution), and then to end in the museum.

Ultimately, I was pressed for time and sadly missed Uzupius. Pictures
from rest of day to follow.
