Trakai Island Castle
Karaims (or Karaites) are a small Turkic-speaking religious and ethnic group resettled to Trakai by Grand Duke Vytautas in 1397 and 1398 from Crimea We drank berry beer by accident and only realized after no buzz
Karaim liquor made Christie wince Souvenirs galore
It was a beautiful day, so we took a boat ride before entering the castle Old administrative buiding off the water
Being silly near the big white admin building
Peddling back to shore Christie started steering towards the weeds Brett tried hard not to get lost
We sat for a few minutes to take in the scenery And get playful again with the boat amenities
