Very nice review, thank you, but you didn't have the most beautiful interior in Vilniaus Šv. Petro is Povilo church, which is 1 km from the center of Vilniaus. Will have a chance to visit again :)

Lithuania was actually our favorite. Sweden was our least favorite. We loved the hearty food, affordable prices, and beautiful architecture. We also felt that people in Lithuania were more friendly. Hope to come back in the future and visit some of the coast. Thanks for watching!

Hola Georgia and David. I'm enjoying your European videos but I can't add anything. Not my area of expertise, unfortunately. I have some more thoughts about Mexico, however. I would have written sooner but my computer has been freezing up, and if it starts to do that before I finish this comment I'll send what I have and send more later. I don't blame you for skipping the road to Palenque that goes past Ocosingo. In 1974 the dirt and gravel road ended at Ocosingo, with vague promises that eventually the entire road would be paved to Palenjque. The 60 mile trip lasted more than three hours each way. Huistan and Oxchuc were interesting villages to visit, and I had a nice visit with a Tzeltal family (Domingo Thomas Gomez) in Oxchuc. I picked up numerous Tzeltal hitchhikers in the area and enjoyed the experience. The people in Ocosingo must get out on the wrong side of the bed every morning. For as long as I can remember the road to Palenque has been blocked by people protesting something or other. The scenery to Ocosingo was very interesting, passing numerous settlements with thatch roof houses. The scenery to Palenque is probably even better, base4d on the road between Chiapa de Corzo and Villahermosa. I'm really looking forward to your Chiapas videos, as well as the ones from Palenque. I suppose you weren't able to climb the Temple of the Inscriptions and descend down to see the tomb of Pakal. That used to be possible before a tourist fell down the steps to the tomb. Many fewer tourists back then too. I was free to climb around the other temples and the Palace and explore the interiors. The town of Palenque must have been fairly small because I don't remember it. Your videos in the state of Campeche will be of great interest to me. In 1974 when I drove through the area I looked in vain for any sort of sign pointing to any of the areas archaeological ruins. I could not see so much as a small hand lettered sign on a scrap of wood. Oh well. Maybe just as well, since it was the rainy season and the roads could have been mud, like the road to Sayil and Labna. Besides Xpujil, there is Chicanna, Hormiguero, Becan, Rio Bec, Kohunlic and Calakmul. I'm sure there are numerous other ruins in the area. I doubt you had time to see all of them. I've read that SE Campeche has at least 80 archaeological sites. Did you stop in Chetumal or Bacalar? The fort is sort of interesting, although when I was there it was rainy and the fort wasn't open. Chetumal was a duty free zone and the Mexican tourists were grabbing up bargains. Chetumal is a good place to enter Belize. Altun-Ha, Lubaantum, and Xunantunich are important archaeological ruins, and how could anyone pass up a chance to visit a settlement called Monkey River? Maybe you chose to explore the Lagunas Bacalar instead. I have no idea where you are at the moment. Perhaps still somewhere on the east coast of the state of Quintana Roo. The ruins of Tulum should be visited but maybe not the safest place to spend a week. Or perhaps things aren't as bad as advertised. In 1974 the road south from Puerto Morelos past Tulum was new, and accommodations were sparse and spartan. There was a small village within walking distance of the ruins (someone was serving up fish, tortillas, rice and beans to hungry hippies), and near the ruins one could park and camp for 5 pesos per night, or rent a hammock under a palapa for 25 pesos per night. I suspect that today parking may be subject to inflationary pressure. There was no landscaping around the ruins, just weeds and an occasional bush. The few tourists at the site, mostly hippies, were free to climb on the ruins. There was a trail of sorts down the cliff to the beach, but no stairs, and there were numerous tar balls, some visible but others just under the sand, waiting to adhere to any foot or shoe unlucky enough to step on them. A bit south of Tulum, just a few miles, lie the ruins of Muyil. I hope you found them. They are located in the biosfera de Sian Ka'an. Also in the area is Coba, the most important site in the area. 50 years ago there was no road to the site, just a 25 mile jungle trail, which I chose not to try in the rain. Coba is large and worth exploring. Further north Playa del Carmen had a few houses awaiting a developer loaded with government money. Puerto Morelos was a tiny settlement, maybe a dozen houses and a handful of commercial buildings that served the ferry to Cozumal. The ferry was small, and cars were transported, one at a time, by driving them onto the bow of the ferry, the front of the car on the starboard side of the ferry, the back of the car hanging over the port side. You missed out on the adventure. Prior to the road from Puerto Juarez arriving in Puerto Morelos, travel to Puerto Morelos was via a mule drawn narrow gauge train that originated in Leona Vicario. The journey took a day and a half. You missed out. This train was still in use in the 1950s and probably part of the 1960s. Xel-ha was a beautiful little lagoon unencumbered by any development. Cancun had a beautiful beach and seven completed hotels, some open for tourists. A few more hotels were under construction, but very little intruded upon the great beach. The ferries to Isla Mujeres departed from the dock in Puerto Juarez. 10 pesos each way, if I remember correctly. The ferries were about 40 feet long and had merchandise destined for the island piled on the deck. Some passengers sat on the merchandise. The island had several simple little hotels, and when the sun peaked out from behind the clouds the glare off of the pure white sand required sunglasses to prevent "snow blindness". Perhaps I have just about caught up to where you are. On the way to Valladolid there is the town of Chemax, The church of San Antonio Chemax has one of the best baroque facades in the peninsula. I'm sure you plan to visit Valladolid. There are several churches. The Cathedral is on the plaza. I spent a hot, humid hour one afternoon listening to choir girls practicing for the following Sunday mass. They sang "When the Saints Go Marching in" three times. The ex convento, San Bernardino de Sisal, is the most important religious establishment in the city. It is one of the largest conventos in the peninsula. Be sure to see the 17th century noria/well house behind the convento. Valladolid has several museums that might be of interest, and a cenote or two. There are several places worth visiting that are located north of Valladolid. Perhaps the best known are the ruins of Ek'Balam, definitely worth the trip. In 1974 not a blade of grass or bush had been disturbed at the site, and only the locals and INAH had a clue as to its existence. Espita has a nice colonial charm and the facade of the church of San Jose is attractive. Calotmul has some very good baroque retablos, and the retablo mayor may be the best example of its type in the Yucatan. Tizimin has a separate convento, located next to the church. Well,let me know where you are. There is a wealth of ruins and churches between Valladolid and Merida and on towards the city of Campeche. You will soon discover that the churches of the Yucatan have a style quite unlike that of the Mexico you have been visiting. Many have an elaborate espadana that tops the main facade. In a few instances they almost resemble the dovecote at Uxmal. Many of the churches are quite interesting and attractive, but you won't find a Santa Prisca (Taxco) or Santo Domingo (Oaxaca) in the Yucatan, which was in many ways a frontier area of Mexico. Also, many of the churches had exceptionally thick walls that housed a camino de rondo, or internal gallery that ran around the top of the nave. Another feature is the log roof supported by stone arches. I hope you are having a good time.

So glad to hear from you! We spent 5 days in Xpujil and visited ruins every day it was awesome some of the best we have seen so far. We then spent a month relaxing in Bacalar. We never crossed the border into Belize but we did visit four more archeological zones. Now we are spending a week in Mahahual before heading to Puerto Morelos for a month. We are taking our time moving through the peninsula since there are such great ruins, cenotes, and beaches to explore. The first time I (Georgia) visited Mexico was 18 years ago, even then Playa del Carmen was so much sleepier compared to today and Tulum wasn't much more than the ruins.
