What we saw had imagined. It was places that were but are not now. Claudia did a good job describe them

The sites where the camps were from pictures on the wall. The information of the Jewish history going back a 1000 years.

Response from Host, Jul 2024

Thank you Irwin for your wonderful words. It was my pleasure have you both on the tour. Here's the title of the book I mentioned to you: "Nazi on the run" by Gerald Steinacher. You can get in on Kindle. Take care and keep traveling!
