The other day we were driving home and saw cars slowing down for what seemed like a parade. We got these pictures taken and then asked a friend what it was about.
Each year different departments at the University celebrate a Faculty Day. This parade was from the Physics Faculty Day celebration. The symbol for this department is a dragon. (Our picture of the large dragon float was blurred!) The students were traveling in large trucks and cars waving flags to honor the faculty from the Physics department.
They often walk around in Old Town and bring their celebration wherever they go. These are traditions from the University in Vilnius.
