Chargers Win, Chargers Win

OUTLINE

  • Everyone is up in plenty of time for our train but we still end up running late and only just making it to the platform in time
  • Everyone sleeps on the train but me
  • TopTrumps – I win
  • We are asked to move carriages because we are sat at the wrong end of the train. This end stops at the Poland – Lithuanian boarder. The other end carries on to Vilnius. Thanks to Mr. Conductor
  • We change at Sestokai by crossing the platform and boarding a Lithuanian ‘First Northwestern’ train to Vilnius
  • Our hostel booking is wrong but the city is quiet and we get another easily, quickly and only a short walk away
  • We drop our bags and head out for some food. Nationwide is not working again!
  • Food is cheap in Vilnius, we order a three course meal at midnight. The first meal of the day
  • Euros pay for my bed and I get to sleep for the first time in 48 hours

I.S.C. sweet Polish train station buns. Apple filling, score -1!!!

Sarah does not understand TopTrumps.

Polish – Lithuanian boarder is a white hut housing a small suited man and a green ping pong paddle.

Vilnius is small and beautiful especially in the snow.

Our fashionable pod style hostel is disorientating but a bed is a bed when you’ve been watching NFL all night.
