Munich

Tricia and I went to Dachau today. The memorial is 30 min away, took a cab out and then a bus/train combo to come back. This is my only photo, couldn’t imagine taking photos of the actual site or images shown. We were really glad we went. We walked, listened, read, for 4.5 hours before we had finished learning as much as we could. They’ve done a wonderful job of telling the history. And the survivors were the ones who insisted that it be made into a memorial. I didn’t realize that this was the model for all concentration camps; the commander of Auschwitz learned his trade here.
