Auschwitz - March 2nd
It’s was an appropriately wet, cold, dreary day at Auschwitz and from the moment we stepped onto the site it was hard to imagine that the sun and warm ever make an appearance there. We are truly speechless. There are no words, there is no description and there’s no explanation. At the end of the day, the only way to comprehend is to open our hearts and minds, honor each and every spirit, and embrace tolerance as if it were part of our genetic make-up and not simply a conscious decision. We are eternally moved, we are grateful for our human rights and freedom and we are blessed to have family and friends that we love, laugh with and get to wrap our arms around at the end of the day.
