Excursion day vol. 3!

Team members ready for today's adventure

Today we had a great study trip to Kaunas open-air museum in Rumšiškės. Museum was already interesting as it self but as we had a guide, we got to know a lot more about the buildings and lifestyles of different epochs and social strata. After a couple hours' guided tour at the museum we had an excursion about Lithuanian Easter-festivities, where we got to decorate our own easter-palms and taste typical Easter-food. Last but not least at Rumšiškės everyone got the opportunity to ride in a horse wagon which was unexpected and nice ending for a great day - a cherry on top of a cake!

After the open-air museum we went to Park Inn Hotel Kaunas, where we got to experience a culinary show. We got to learn how Lithuania's traditional dishes beetroot soup and Cepelinai (potato-meat dumplings) are prepared. Experience of the local dishes was fulfilled when we got to taste the dishes.

The team's feelings after a sunny day are a bit blue for the fact that this project is about to end in a couple of days - but there's no time to feel sad since in this short period of time we still have a lot to do: Gathering and modifying all the results the teams have produced into the final report and making the power point presentation which will we presented on Friday in the closing ceremony. And what comes to tommorow's division of labour: the teams will come together to the national teams like in the beginning and work on their original dimensions.


Anxious and a bit stressed about tommorow's work load,


Greetings from the Finnish team,
