We've had some difficult history lessons over the last couple of days, but we wouldn't have missed it.
Thanks to Norbert for so many good recommendations of places to visit in Kraków, and also for meeting up with us on Monday evening.

Ian and Gill,
Really enjoyed (if that is the right word) this episode. The use of silence in the camp was very appropriate. The horror is unimaginable, but important to be aware of.
...Rod & Linda.
Thank you, Rod. We also had a walking tour in Warsaw which highlighted the conditions in the biggest Jewish ghetto. As you say, unimaginable. Kind regards to you both.
Thanks for sharing. I would like to visit Auschwitz myself one day - it's an important reminder as to how evil people can be and these places should never be forgotten.
Agreed, Colin It's also a salutary warning against indifference from those not immediately involved.
Great to watch this episode Ian, we were in Krakow last year and watching this brought back good memories, you have captured it well. Safe travels for you and your wife.
Thank you. Got the oil leak fixed today :)
Great info & footage looks like you both are having a great trip . Safe travels & keep up the good work . Regards Robert
Thank you, Robert. It has been an amazing experience. We're heading to Estonia this morning.
By the way your video also as always has a lot more positive clips!!
That must have been traumatic! It’s a trip myself and Juliana have still to do!!
I would thoroughly recommend it. Interestingly, it apparently gets more visitors than either Krakow or Warsaw
