Today we went to the National Museum to look for some really rare, totally amazing coin that was found during the construction of the lower castle. We did not get to the coin but we got to the creature of the museum. That genetically perfected type told us no pictures allowed whatsoever other than the Grunwald battle model. And no, not even the the little pieces of cardboard with the information about the exhibits.
We rebelled and got some administrator who said that it is OK to take the picture of the information about exhibits. I suppose that’s no Louivre and exhibits like coins and metals decay from exposure to the camera radiation, and you know how hard those are to come by… So we kind of lost interest in the rest. We did see the Homecoming exhibition that talked about thousands of deported Lithuanians. Very controversial topic this one so I’ve leave it as it. Suffice to say that there was no Homecoming for the other large group of Lithuanian citizens about the same size helpfully disposed of by mostly locals. And there is no mention of that either.
So, to get to the good thing we went to the Sushi Inn for lunch. They did not have any raw fish or soup, and Philadelphia cream cheese was just lightly touched to the roll, but they were good. And ½ price of their orgasmic counterparts across the street.
After work we stocked up on some picnic items that we promptly consumed in the car and went to Pushkin park. Pushkin was a bit like Peter the Great. He stopped by in a lot of places. The park was OK. A bit on the boring side. Belmont park is must bigger and better. We came back to continue our walk in the city.
America America guy is back. Georgia almost bumped into him. We froze because the guy has this really loud voice that carries around 5 blocks and everything he says sounds like a scene. But fortunately he was talking to someone else and did not notice her. Now only Rosita is missing.
I wonder where they thoght of the name "Pushkin Street". You would "rebel" about the pictures, but I don't understand why they make such a fuss about pictures. Tell them my little brother Mark will be taking pictures in the White House in 2 weeks when he visits it for the first time. If he could take photos there, why can't we here good sir?! They should invest in better technology that won't allow camera/flash to ruin those precious artifacts/coins. Be careful about the fish there, you never know how old or where it came from. I suppose I'm just jealous cause I haven't had sushi in some time. Kisses :)
