Before every journey I usually examine the map in search for the places which are obligatory to visit.
However more than this I just like to travel by virtual maps: to look on the photos of the different countries and to dream to go there.
The main goal of the journey to the Kaliningrad region (which is a Russian region at north Europe)
for me became Vistula Spit which attracted me by the abandoned airdrome and fort. 
There was no road by land to spit but every two hours the ferry was set off from Baltyisk.
Its schedule I knew already at the Moscow but before embarking on ferry I should travel to the Baltyisk by bus.
The timing of the bus didn’t fit with the ferry’s one and I was lucky that I found a boatman who for a small price helped me with his motorboat. 
First of all upon the spit I went in the direction where I imagined the fort would be.
I came to the walls of fort and saw the cows pasturing near the walls.
Then I walked in ascended on the hill near the sea shore formed by the walls and my dream came true.
On the background of the blue with gray water the red with pink bricks line of the ruins stretched to the horizon lit by sunshine.
The spots of colors of water brick walls roofs and sand created the pink-beige-blue coloring and then they were falling apart in the variety of tonal and color nuances!
The silver lines of breakwaters stretched into the distance and the shiningly white swans were swimming nearby.
Here it was my subject! I never supposed that I will do it by such efforts as I spend on it later. But I also couldn’t refuse from it.  
I began to work. The bright and burning sun was shining in the sky and from the side of the Baltic Sea was blowing the piercing wind.
As I was in sweater and jacket in the shadow of the umbrella I was freezing but my hands that periodically were on the sunshine began to get sunburnt.
I finished the session spared some time to visit one another place of interest – aerodrome Neutief. 
On the next day the work became more difficult as the wind became stronger so from time to time I should to hold my painter’s case from efforts to go fly.
I tightened my umbrella to the heavy bricks of fort which were scattered everywhere.
But after a short while the spokes brock down and I was left without the umbrella. In the end as I could I finished under the sun the daily part of the job.
This day I happened to see a big black bird which spread wide apart its wings and was posing on the breakwater.
Later I got to know that it was black cormorant. I fixed the umbrella by the evening but all the same couldn’t use it on the next day:
the wind was blowing so hard that the umbrella strived to fall dragging the bricks over the grass.
Somehow I finished the third session. Only the fourth day went quite fortunately.
The wind calmed down and gave me an opportunity to paint without thinking about flying brushes pallete umbrella and painter’s case. 
I memorized the two big swans which with the rustle flew over my head. They appeared to be a giant birds. 
In the end of each session I went back by the ferry to the bus station.
The ferry was filling with passengers and cars and sailed to the port under the burning sunshine from which
I would hide in the narrow shadows from the constructions if there was any empty place.
