"Could you please tell me where I can purchase children's Lithuanian
DVDs? I live in Canada and there is nothing here. I purchased "Pirmas
Zingsnis" a few years back. A lot of my friends would like to purchase it,
but I can no longer find them on the web. Perhaps you know the whereabouts
of that DVD?

Sharing impressions of Lithuania
http://www.ap-photo.com/lithuania
Last March I went to Lithuania for the first
time to meet my mother's cousin. We did not know they were alive for 28
years until they found us in 2002. I am a photographer and took 1000s of
photographs while I was there. I will post photographs of my family in
June. In the meantime you can take a look at the
45 photographs of Lithuania I have on my website.

way of "Draugas."
