There are 2 ferries in Klaipeda to the Curonian
Spit. One pedestrian only ferry and a car ferry. The signage isn't
really good. This map you'll find, after getting totally lost, at the
port.
The beaches of the Curonian Spit are used by many
people (locals and tourists) to look for amber. But to find amber
between all the stones, one needs a good eye and patience.
Tip:
Is it a stone, amber or ship-grease? Not always easy to see! Amber does
float in salt water, but not in fresh water. Stones don't float at all,
and grease always does.
A typical village road somewhere in Lithuania.
The Mountain of Crosses consists of thousands
of crosses in all sizes. When I was there a wedding party came
to put up a new cross.
They are just working on a small building, probably to charge
a entrance fee soon.
