Here are some of the pictures I took at the concentration camp Majdanek. It's the second largest in Europe. They didn't turn out as well as I hoped, but it was a pretty gloomy day. That really made it even more of a surreal experience!!!
(The pictures are all links to pufile. It was the best I could do from here)
This first picture is pretty self explanitory:

This one is the original plans for the camp. The part in blue is the completed part:

The crematorium where they would burn up to 1,000 bodies a day:

Inside the fenceline. Double barbed wire fences. They are also all electric:

This is my wife with a guy we met there. He was in a camp in Germany and also a slave for years after. We talked with him for almost an hour. The things he went through are unimaginable!!! Givin the life he lived, you never guess he's 83 and looking so young. I felt weird asking for his picture, but I wanted to make sure I'd always remember him and the stories he shared with us:
