Day 3
Friday, March 11
Warsaw, Poland - 09:00
A wonderful hockey morning on the Gintowt's rink soon to
come...
Entering Lithuania - 20:00
After running through the Lithuanian border checkpoint
without stopping (by mistake of course) we find ourselves
in a bit of a situation after hitting a heavy snowstorm.
Just past the Lithuanian border the car decides it is bored
and takes on a life of its own making a 360 degree turn
into a ditch. Making sure the team is alright the next step
involves getting the car out of the ditch. A few friendly
Lithuanian guys exchange an unknown sum of money with another
group of Lithuanian guys in a gas station and a backhoe
came to the rescue. No cops are called saving us deportation
and most probably many fines. Back on the road we do a double
check for bone breakage and settle into the new rattling
sounds of our fine vehicle.
