Our second day in Munich was ever so slightly just outside of the city center at a place called Dachau. I thought the crimalnal museum in Rothenburg was disturbing until I saw this. This is by far the most inhumane, evil thing I have ever seen. I took pictures but not enthusiastically and only to show my friends and family the terrible things that were done at this place and many other places like it all over Europe during the war. We spent a considerable amount of time here. Not that there was a lot to see but the audio tour we used captivated our curiosity and left us with a sense of responsibility to give respect to those who endured these conditions and to educate all those around us in a way that such a thing will never happen again.
To many question were raised in my mind here, too many whys and how comes...overwhelmed we decided it was enough. Sherry and I went to a small imbiss just outside of the memorial to have lunch (we could not eat there it just didn't seem right in a place where so many starved to death). We were quiet for sometime after.
