The diary of Nachenthaly Francisco

Day 3, 5th of July 2013, Lithuania

The third day was an interesting day. We started up with a horescope assignment. Every group of about five people got two starsigns to work with. The assignment was to come up with a horescope. My group had the starsigns Gemini (a difficult name for twins) and Leo. We came up with tips like "Coam your hair, because you look extremely wild" and "Be different and not like your sibling". 

In the afternoon we went to Trakai for a while to visit a castle. In Trakai I literally sprinted to a small shop to get me some Coca Cola. It never tasted this good and it will never taste that good again. At the training centre we were almost drowned in water with lemon, so a Coca Cola was really needed. A cold Coca Cola in the shining sun in Lithuania, it was perfect. After the Coca Cola break, we went to see the castle. It was beautiful and I immediately imagined myself being a princess and walking through the halls of this enormous castle, which was close to a perfect lake. What a view!

After our Trakai experience we went to Vilnius, where we had a paper with assignments to complete. We had to, for example, make a picture with an animal and it was very hard to find, but we eventually found a lion in Lithuania (eventhough it was on cardboard). I even managed to change jackets with a boy and he ended up asking for my Facebook. I guess asking for telephonenumbers was too 2012. In the evening we were tortured by massive rainfall, but in the end that did not matter. We had fun anyway! On the third day here at 12 o'clock in the evening we sang for Elisa, because it was her birthday. After our one minute performance we noticed that we ruined the life of the woman, who came to tell us that we were too loud and that we had to go sing somewhere else. Because of the fact that we felt so bad about breaking her heart, we went away while singing YMCA as loud as we could, at least I did. We did not see much of the rest of culturenight, but we ended up following the chinese culture. Being athletic (we walked the whole night without seeing anything) instead of having fun. Guess it was a bit of a culturenight after all! 

Just wanted to let you know that we're still having fun and that we're still learning a lot here in Lithuania. 

Much greeting from Lithuania,
