Thought Provoking: Auschwitz & Auschwitz Birkenau

While in Poland, I had the opportunity to visit two concentration camps from WWII, Auschwitz and Auschwitz-Birkenau, located about an hour outside of Krakow. Making it a priority to learn some history first hand, visiting these two camps was a combination of emotions from shocking to saddening to very thought provoking.  While my pictures couldn't possibly count for being there, I still want to share them with you.  More will be up soon, blogger is acting up.
