Viva long weekends and Lithuanian laws

or
Climbing in Fränkische Schweiz (Frankenjura)

In Lithuania we have a law, that if a national fest appears on a weekend, there is an extra day-off the next day after it. It also applies to the fest that are always on Sunday, e.g., Mom's day, Easter... :) Due to this we had a 5 day weekend:
- 1'405 km to the "dream land"
- 3.5 days of climbing in Frankenjura (DE)
- 761 km to red-point the routes left from the last time
- 0.5 day climbing in Jura (PL)
- 802 km back home

Nice drive on the back seat - I have no driving licence yet. Good rocks with the 1st pit in 4-8 meters, slightly overhanging, sometimes a little bit polished, hidden in the forest or awesome peaks with perfect panorama, huge boulders with many problems, etc. Other advantages? Camping is cheap (5€/night), shower is hot for 1€, river Trubach is cold and small, sleeping time starts 11pm and there is a guy with a dog adn a torch, who reminds you this in case you're singing too loud...

Resume: if you do not remember the your credit card pin, door code, or what you did before you left for job, you had a gooooood vacation ;)
