Auschwitz
14th December
We awoke to a covering of snow, and walked to the bus station to catch the minibus to Oswiecim, where the Auschwitz museum is located, 60 kilometers west of Krakow. The fare is only 7 zloty (£1.40) for an hour and half trip, with the toilet charge at the bus station being a disproportionate 2 zloty (40p).
There was only a light covering of snow at Auschwitz . We decided not to take a guided tour, and armed with the local guide leaflet, explored the main museum blocks. Exhibits included collections of the belongings of jewish victims who perished at Auschwitz….tens of thousands of suitcases, spectacles, artificial limbs, and a 7 ton mountain of human hair.
