The trip yesterday was not really about happy 'touristy' stuff. I went with Ania to visit the Auschwitz-Birkenau concentration camp. There is a lot of disturbing stuff to see especially what happened to children there. It was also crazy to hear some more detail on the medical experiments they were performing on people (both dead and alive). So, definitely a worthwhile visit and of course any problems you have in your life tend to disappear when compared with daily life in the concentration camp. It's one of those places that gives a lot of perspective.
The previous day we visited the university campus in town and just general sightseeing of the Krakow centre. Ania has been a great 'tour-guide' and we still have some very interesting trips to go on (salt mine today - better get ready soon).
My general plan for the next little bit is to go to Berlin on Monday to catch up with Robina. I will spend a couple of days in Berlin and then head back to Hamburg to 're-group'.
Thinking of all you guys.

Hi Jonny
Our computer has been out of action all week & only up & running again today. Have missed keeping in touch with you thru your posts so really appreciating being able to now. You've done so much since we last logged in & all sounds amazing. Can only try to imagine what it would be like to visit 'Auschwitz' & appreciate how any problems would pale into insignificance. So glad you've got such great friends showing you around over there. Thinking of you & look forward to you next post or txt. Lots of Love from the Youngies :)
