Something to contemplate

Don't dream of where you see yourself in 10 or 20 years, start your journey today so you'll have a story to tell when you get there.....

Poland, Auschwitz

The gates to the camp which have above them 'work makes you free' this is where the first camp was





In the museum they had a picture of what the transport would have looked like for the prisoners




This is a picture of the second camp which I found more distressing as it had the railway line and where the people got out and were sorted one to work camp another to their death

The horse stables where they were imprisoned




Before the war ended they tried to blow up and cover up what had remained of the crematoriums



View from the guard tower


Czech Republic, Prague, Kutna Hora and the bone church and Brno the moto GP

This mosaic on the church shows on one side the sinners going to hell and the other side the saints going to heaven it is so well done with the little tiles

The intricate carvings on the gates

On our way to Brno from Kutna Hora


The sculptures of the bone church they dug up over 40,000 skeletons and made ornaments in the church





Even a coat of arms


Even the teeth are attached to the skulls colm was fascinated by this

Good old catholics they know how to recycle
