Early morning in Kaunas. Citrofans are coming from Kaunas, Panevezys, Siauliai, Marijampole...
Citrofans from Klaipėda... with legendary self moving Citroën DS...
and escort of ZXs and BXs.
Climate is well... despite two weeks long raindrops.
Citroen parade - on the way to form the Longest row of Citroen cars in Kapitoniskes..
... where were already waiting Citroen fans from Alytus and...
.... organisers at the beginning of the Row.
... O beauties... part of them waving their hands, other - swinging in Amazonia JJJ
Vilnius' delegation, whose leader drives without lights L ???
Ranking, numbering and... - the Plans of the Organisators not materialized.
There where only 123 Citroens officially in the Row and 126 not officially (expected least 200).
Despite this sad fact the Result is better according to the Row of 113 Citroen cars two years ago.
