When I was going on holidays to Lithuania in winter, I thought I would do nothing there but stay at a hotel and watching TV. But I was mistaken. It appeared that not only the Alps offer excellent skiing experience, especially for the beginners. We decided to spend our vacation in Lithuania in Birshtonas, a small quiet place where nothing bothers you to relax and enjoy wonderful Lithuanian surroundings. Birshtonas had several ski paths and a hill that was about 40 m high. It was my favorite pastime there. Early in the morning we got up and went skiing. It was the best beginning of a day that I could ever think of.  After skiing we backed to the hotel, had dinner and then went to discover the local sights. But most of all I liked our trip to Anikschai. We saw an old railroad and some of old trains. We also visited the Museum of Horses that impressed me a lot. We also did shopping so I bought some Christmas presents for my family. On the whole, I enjoyed my winter vacation in Lithuania and I thought: "Why not to come in summer again?!"
