I'm happy to be your tourguide! I hope our next trip will be more uplifting.
I'd been to the Anne Frank House before when I was younger, but only remembered Anne's wall with the pictures of filmstars. The hidingplace has a lot of rooms, but they are all very tiny, especially if you try to imagine eight people in there.
That sounds like an impressive memorial, with references and symbolism on top of trying to represent the massive amount of people that were killed.
I visited Auschwitz and no words can describe the feeling of seeing that place; even standing there it's near impossible to understand what happened.
Yet it's important that these places are preserved, because no matter how painful it is to be reminded of those horrid times, we must never forget.
