Despite the fact that this year San Juan Day is celebrated in the middle of the week, but it seems that people do not have it. The Palanga coast is full of tourists. It is true that the water was cold and its temperature reached 14 degrees on Wednesday. As a result, there are few bathers in the sea, and most of them are children who are not afraid of the cold.
However, the same could not be said of tourists lying on the beach. Most of them seem to rest without alcohol, but there are still those who do not know or ignore the prohibition.
Afternoon of San Juan 15 minutes Along with Palanga’s rescue manager, Jonas Pirožnik, and a police officer, we went on a raid along the coast. Within 10 minutes, we noticed that 3 companies were carrying alcoholic beverages and arrested a 21-year-old Dainiai from Baisogala who was trading chebureks.

They drank beer elsewhere or found a can at the seashore
As soon as the police officer arrived, we all sat down on the rescue boat from Palanga. As soon as we moved, we noticed that a couple had alcoholic beverages with them.
“Since it is not possible to produce an administrative infringement report on the spot, they were offered to go to the rescue station or, if convenient for them, we will send the report by email.” 15 minutes The officer said, noting that the tourists were in good faith, admitting that they had committed the crime.

However, other tourists are smarter – we’ve already caught them with empty cans. When asked by the officer why he was not throwing the package, a man replied, “It’s 10 cents!”

“It’s an empty can here, I really don’t have anything else. I drank on the way, somewhere else, and I think I should add it later,” the tourist tried to convince the official.
“It just caught our eye then. We didn’t throw it away, because we’ll add it later,” explained the tourist.

The mother offered additional earnings
Later, on the Palanga bridge, we encountered Dainiai carrying a bag of chebureks, who did not even attempt to escape or evade the police. The guy testified that he had an individual activity certificate and didn’t know that selling perishable food on the beach was prohibited.
“Trade for the first time, they offered me. My mother recently rested, met one of the doormen and they wondered if they had something to offer … I thought maybe I could make money here. They know my mother, they just suggested, “said the boy from Baisogala.

According to Dainius, he receives 70 cents for each cheburek sold, and sells them for 2.5 euros.
“I work the second day. I don’t know, the first time I heard that it was illegal here and I was wondering why I was still doing it. And now I realize it wasn’t the smartest decision. Because as long as I can remember, chebureks They have been trading here all my life, I never realized it was illegal, ”the guy repeated as he drove to the central rescue station.

Although Dainius claimed that he really kept his distance, he had no masks with him.
“Currently, the coronavirus is spreading and you are in contact, passing through a mass of people. You don’t know the people you know, pass on to others. You can carry that infection without realizing it, “said J. Pirožnikas, the commander of the rescuers from Palanga.
The guy said he was told to get an individual activity certificate.
“Since I said that with individual activities, I thought it was quite legal here. I call the number, they bring me chebureks and that’s it, “he said, explaining that he did not know where and under what conditions the chebureks were made.
