beach

Monday was a national Lithuanian holiday, so we organized an outing to the beach in Palanga. It was our first time driving in Lithuania, which was quite an adventure. :) We got to wade in the water, play Dutch Blitz and eat some very good food! The weather was sunny and perfect!

There were lots of things to do on the beach - including a big boat for the little kids. Can you find the naked kid in this picture? :)

 The traditional Lithuanian dish I tried this time was "crepes with cheese and mushroom sauce". The crepes were filled with cheese and then covered in a mushroom white sauce. Very good!

 For dessert we tried waffles on a stick covered in chocolate and sprinkles, whipped cream and/or peanuts. It reminded me of something that would be served at the fair in the States. Very filling!
