pictures of lithuania*

Jag, my friend from Sydney, just sent me some pictures from his recent business trip to Lithuania. I thought the pictures were awesome, especially the architectures. I've always enjoyed travel pictures, mine and others alike, especially if they are taken beautifully. Not those narcissistic ones followed by endless "Ooh, this is me taken in xxx and this is me having lunch in xxx and this is me blah blah blah" commentaries. Bleh. Thank goodness my friends are not like that.

Anyway, i digressed.

So, without much ado, and with Jag's grand approval, I hereby present to you the picturesque tour of Lithuania. Commentaries are by Jag. Enjoy!

Vilnius from the top of the hill, where the old fort
is located, was used as defence in many wars.

Vilnius Old City (700 years old)

Pic from a bridge across the East side.

Statues of freedom fighters across a bridge.

Old art gallery.

Clock tower in the old city centre.

Church from 1300s.

Church from 1500s.

Rebuild church from 1700s, originally
1300s but destroyed many times by war.

Former KGB HQ. Now the Genocide Museum.
The basement of this building is where the KGB detained
anyone against Soviet rule and teachings.

Names of famous Lithuanians who died at the old KGB HQ.
This wall is on the base of the old KGB HQ.

1 & 2 - KGB Prison cells

3 - KGB Standing room,where new arrivals to the
prison are locked up without any clothes for days.

4 -KGB Execution Chamber where hundreds of Lithuanians
were shot dead during Soviet rule till 1991.

my narcissistic feet*

Just when I spoke too soon about how irritating those narcissistic travel pictures were, I am going to demonstrate the irritation now...

On the left is me comparing my right foot to one of those statues' in one of the temples in Angkor.

On the middle is both my feet up against the temple walls in Bayon.

And on the right is both my feet again doing peek-a-boo in the boat, going for a 1-hour tour on the Mekong River in Laos.

Haha. I am so full of shit sometimes...

But even so, I still get to be in Simontalks' Top 5 Fave Blogs list. Waa, felt so honoured. Thank you, dear Simon. In that list, he also mentioned about EatingChaos's travelogues. Go check it out, I really think it's very good.
