Laba diena!


So, this is my third day alone in Lithuania, and it has been interesting thus far. I am learning alot and seeing alot of beautiful things. I got hit on yesterday by an Italian man...oh so funny. And my friend from the States, Tammy, is flying in today, which I am so excited about.


The missionaries here, Tony and Shasta, have been so kind and helpful, and my roomate Tessa has been as well. The people here are pretty nice, they really like Americans and enjoy practicing their english. There have been a couple times in stores or restaurants that I have had NO idea what something was and I have asked for help. They are always willing to assist.


I am learning alot about the history of Lithuania and the former Soviet States while I am here as well. There are concentration camp remains throughout the country and monuments here in Vilnius where Jews died. So much tension still exists between the Lithuanian people and Russia.


That's all I have for now, so stay in touch. I don't know if you can see my email on here, but it is Cake885@bellsouth.net. I'll post my phone number later. Email me and I'll send you my address.


Much love,


Halley
