Flowers on a GravesiteThe gravesites in Eastern Europe, and especially Prague, are incredibly well-kept. Gravesites are generally crammed next to each other in a small yard next to a church. It was interesting to walk around and observe the age of some of the stones. Despite the morbidity of the subject, there are quite beautiful scenes in these cemeteries.Comments

Auschwitz/Birkenau BathroomsThe bathroom facilities for prisoners at Birkenau, Auschwitz's sister concentration camp. The buildings at Birkenau are made of wood, and are not insulated like the barracks at Auschwitz. The bathrooms facilities you see here is what the prisoners had to use in even the most brutal of conditions. Needless to say, I was emotionally drained that day.Comments

Auschwitz MuseumThis is one of the halls in one of the museums at the Auschwitz concentration camp. The walls are covered in the photos that the Nazis took of prisoners who were imprisoned in the camp. The SS took very detailed documentation on all of their activities. These hall were former barracks for the prisoners. It's especially eerie to see flowers tacked above a photo. What a sick place.Comments

Birkenau BedsThe beds in the barracks where Nazi prisoners of war slept. There was only straw for padding and warmth. Usually, prisoners slept three to a bed to stay warm. Conditions were horrible.Comments
