Day 179 - visited Buchenwald YESTERDAY 18 March 2015 WALKING IN THE SUN AT BUCHENWALD CONCENTRATION CAMP:::

Hired a car and went to Buchenwald yesterday.  It was different from what I expected......left some balancing Stones on the stump of The Goethe tree. 

I know my dad would be pleased I visited .   I feel I have some closure now I have visited.  It was a lovely sunny, bright day and at times it was hard to imagine and comprehend that the building and surrounding area had seen some very terrible times...... visited The Quarry which is in a very beautiful Setting.......


Talked to a Group of School children and their teacher - one of them was from Belgium and he was very nice and waved goodbye to me in an endearing manner.

Reflected about the Girls from Lille who perished at Auschwitz and asked my dad and the other political prisoners who matched by them just before they were murdered - Tell the World what Happened to Us Please ´well I think between us; my dad and I got their message out to the world via the Internet and it is something that those Girls from Lille never knew would happen .....

Felt very grateful to have been  Walking in the sun at Buchenwald.....Image result for images of sunshine and happiness
