It was time to say good bye to our Latvian runners. Once more our deepest gratitude for the outstanding organisation and all the hospitality!

...we got nice refreshments....

Thank you Klaipeda for the hospitality!

...we went on the boat...

...to reach the "Kursiu Nerijos" National park - a belt that stretches out from Klaipeda over 100km all the way South to Kaliningrad.

Halfway we reached Nida, the last community in Lithuania before Russia.
