Comeback to Nida v.2

I'm sitting in a car on my way home to Kaunas. There is a mild pain in my legs reminding me of 108 kilometers i biked today together with other 4 crazy people. It's not thecraziest distance for me i covered in one day. But it's crazy enough to do so without proper warmup. And my bike was resting this season. But hey - challenges are fun!
So, 56 kilometers from Smiltynė to Nida (through Juodkrantė) and 52 in the opposite direction. We made small stops to rest our backs and a little bit of siteseeing. The highlight of the trip - Naglis Dune - of incredible beauty. Modest and yet stunning th- plastic lines of different shades of sand, grass and flowers framed by Curanian See and Baltic Sea. Yet, it's hard to describe.
The whole Curanian Spit is my favorite part of Lithuania - sure, it lacks greenery, but there are a lot more sunny shades of sand. And there is calmness, sometimes silence. Not the deaf one, but filled with sounds of sea, pines and wind which compared to the sound of cars and other industrial noise is really like a silence.
