Leisurely wake up to drive to Bergen to visit the place that Anne Frank and her mother were buried. An infinitely sad place. I visit to pray for the 1000s of souls buried there. It is NOT a touristRead more





















TravelerLovely photo of you two. Yes now Paul should read Ann Franks diary after seeing Bergen Belsen
TravelerWhat makes you think I haven’t read it… okay it was 40 years ago, but still quite a vivid memory, that’s also why I wanted to go to the memorial. Imagine the mass graves 500 bodies in a pit the size of a caravan. In a pit 3x the size was 5000 bodies. 50,000 bodies found, however the majority were cremated… so nobody knows just how many were killed. It was also a POW camp. Actually a huge site, would have been about 4km long. so solemn and heavy on the heart to think what humans can do to each other.

This how thick the armoured plate was on the front of the German tiger tank… just meant bigger bullets were required
