Vilnius, Lithuania

No more Riga - yesterday I took a bus to to the capital of Lithuania, as I continue to make my way south in Eastern Europe. I got off the bus around 6 or 7 and was pretty sketched out by the area. Whenever I first get to a weird city I'm always like "hmm.... I'm not sure if this is safe/cool/whatever."
Whatever those feelings were, they left me as soon as I got to my hostel. I managed to meet up with a couple of Australian girls that I had met earlier in Stockholm:
Today I walked around for about 10 hours or so... I REALLY like Vilnius. It's something about it. Already I'm putting it as my second favorite place I've been on this trip in Europe (second only to Oslo). During some part of my 10 hours of walking today I made it up to the top of a hill to check out a sick view of the city:

I've been able to keep up regular exercise since I've been traveling. Aside from all the walking, most days I'll go to a random park and do a bunch of push-ups and sit-ups or whatever. Just random body-weight exercises. In Tallinn (Estonia) I found a really nice outdoor workout park... and today in Vilnius I found this:
I was pretty happy when I found it. I haven't been able to do chin-ups since I left Malaysia. In a pretty random place, but still cool.
