Baltic Cruise — Exploring Klaipėda


Klaipėda, Lithuania

There’s some really fun stuff to see and photograph here in Klaipėda. It’s all in the little details, so make sure you look up as you walk around:

As well as looking around, of course:

Baltic Cruise — Helsinki, then on to Klaipėda


Vision of the Seas in Helsinki

Most of this week I’ll be showing you Klaipėda, Lithuania, but I’m also today going to throw in Helsinki, Finland because the weather was so dismal and rainy I didn’t get many photos, let alone worthwhile ones. As such, here’s one more shot of Helsinki before we move on today:

Besides, Klaipėda, Lithuania was much more picturesque anyway, so let’s skip Helsinki and move on.

Klaipėda is a really fun place to walk around. Indeed, next to Talinn, Estonia, it was one of Ursula’s favorite Baltic stops on this cruise. Here, the building are rustic, including exposed timber framing:
