I’m glad you posted that. The green shady walks are really incongruously pretty. I feel like thinking about the holocaust takes an effort of will. It shifts my perspective so much compared to my every day outlook.

What happened is so unimaginable. It is important to be able to imagine it, though.

A most interesting post in a fascinating blog.
Came to it via Sarah Laurence’s.
I have avoided visiting the camps in Europe as I’m not sure I could handle the emoional aspect. My father was a POW in Germany and my mother a refugee from Breslau (now Wroclaw in Poland).
I’m British currently living in NY, having just spent 2 yers in Morocco. I’m not sure I know where home is any more.
All`best wishes and thanks for an insightful and rewarding blog.

That is incredibly intense, just from looking at your photos and captions. I can’t imagine the emotions that would be playing through y head if I were actually there in person.

Thank you for posting this.

I visited the Holocaust Museum in DC last year and it haunted me for days. I can only imagine what it must have been like to visit a concentration camp. Thank you for the photos. Hard to look at some of them. What a sad sad time in history.
