Kaunas\nprobably doesn\u2019t appear in the top ten places to visit in Europe for many\npeople but it is a lovely city with very friendly inhabitants, most of whom\nspeak excellent English.
\nKaunas is the second largest city in Lithuania and has a population of around\n330,000 people.<\/p>\n\n\n

Kaunas has an old town and a new town. Within the new town is this lovely boulevard which leads up to the Church of St. Michael the Archangel. <\/p>\n\n\n

The day I visited the church there was some sort of rehearsal going on. Around 20 people most of the young people were singing and dancing their way around the church. I never did find out what they were rehearsing for but it was good to sit and watch them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
