There have been many interruptions. Beginning school and two other jobs so glad to be back to finish my postings
As we left Schindler's factory we visited the memorial for the Plaszow concentration camp. This is the camp that was represented in Schindler's List. It is crazy to see a large car dealer right across the street. As you can see you walk up a hill and from the distance the monument is difficult to discern. As you get closer you begin to feel smaller as when you arrive at the top you are dwarf ted by the granite. Then as you look up you see the faces looking down at you. What a moment!!!!! I could just picture prisoners walking with their heads down shuffling to their work, but from this postition it is like you could see what they really felt. What a sight to have those heads facing down at you.
The orgininal purpose of this camp was a a work camp. It graduated into a concentration camp.
