Sveiki, Visi,

Širdingai dėkui už registraciją į pasivaikščiojimą palei Neires upę su Peter Lang. Nuo 13 valandos eiti pradėsime nuo policijos komisariato pastato (Giraitės g. 3) prie Savanorių prospekto žiedo: artimiausia viešojo transporto stotelės – Eigulių bei Giraitės. Susitinkame prie įėjimo į pastatą. Kelionė pėsčiomis turėtų trukti apie 4-5 valandas, žadame nueiti apie 16 km ir viską baigsime pakrantės pastate, kuriame įsikūręs menų centras ‘Rupert’. Pasivaikščiojimą aptarsime pick-nick metu šale ‘Rupert’. Iš galutinio taško galėsite išvykti 15 autobusu ir stotelės ‘1-asis paplūdimys’.

Orai permainingi ir kolkas atrodo, kad gali švelniai lyti. Taip pat eisime išmintais ir neišmintais takais, todėl prašome pasirūpinti derama apranga ir avalyne. Galiausiai, į kelionę taip pat pasiimkite fotografavimo, filmavimo ar eskizavimo priemonių, kurių dėka galėsime dokumentuoti mūsų pasivaikščiojimą.

Jei turite kokių klausimų ar pasiūlymų – skambinkite man telefonu +37069837150.

Iki pasimatymo,
Povilas Marozas

Hello Everyone,

Many thanks for registering for a by the river Neris with Peter Lang. We will start our journey from transport police building (Giraitės g. 3) by Savanoriai roundabout: The closest public transport stops are Eigulių and Giraitės. Let’s meet by the entrance to the building. Our walk along the banks of Neris should take 4-5 hours and we will cover 16 km. We will finish at the Pakrantė building where the art center ‘Rupert’ is located. Once there we will have the chance to disscuss the walk while having a picknick. Finally, you will be able to get back to town by taking bus nr 15 from ‘1-asis paplūdimys’ stop.

The weather looks constantly changing and we shall expect some showers. Also, we will be taking some less walked-through paths so keep that in mind when choosing your clothes and shoes. Finally, please take any devices or tools such as photo or video cameras, sketchbooks, etc. that you feel comfortable with in order to document the walk.
