17 th of August -Poland, Oswiecim AKA Aushwitz

There is not a great deal to report other than our visit to the Aushwitz 1 and Aushwitz-Birkenau death camps. Although we had visited before we both felt that we needed to revisit the site to spend more time there and to pay our respects again.

Nothing can justify the unnecessary and horrific murder of hundreds of thousands of innocent people. The inhumane conditions that some were forced to survive in and the cruel way in which the vast majority were deceived and murdered. It makes no sense. People can do so much harm to one another. If you ever have the opportunity to visit Aushwitz you must go so that you are able to really appreciate the freedom that we have.
