    Just got back from a vacation in Poland. Second time I've been there, great country! My girlfriend is from Poland (this was my first time with her) so I guess I'll be going more often. We were staying in Krakow, which is a beautiful city, or at least the city center is. Been to Auschwitz and it's even worse than what you see on TV :wtf: Salt mine Wieliczka was very impressive as well (but not in a maximum killing capacity kind of way). We also went to Energylandia, great if you like roller coasters, which I do! From my previous visit I can also recommend Malbork, largest castle in the world. The "in-laws" are nice too, even though I can't really talk to them. Can see myself going back again :)

    Isn't it interesting how, knowing what happened there, merely being at that same location can convey so much more than actual images of the actual atrocities that took place. Sadly I know people who know nothing about and have no interest in history, even as recent as this is, and wouldn't "appreciate" being there (and I know that's not the right word I should be using there, but I'm coming up blank right now). As they say, people who don't know their history are condemned to repeat it. You have to worry about these people.

      Reality is often way way harsher that what normal people would be able to handle. I love watching documentaries and I couldn't make myself watch the one on an infamous crime that happened in Delhi on 16th of Dec 2012. Humans are capable of atrocities transcending the imagination of general people.

      And sadly the Quote of Einstein about human idiocy and universe, can be applied here as well. Each time I think I have seen everything, someone comes and prove me wrong. :sigh:

                I went to Terezin - Czech republic - sat in front to the oven and cried... Wast majority of today's' folks forgot what WWII was about - destruction of "inferior races". Unfortunately , if I continue it will get political...so let's stick our heads in the sand and pretend all is well. IBTL

                    You know, that didn't even cross my mind when I wrote my response, and that is an even scarier reality. Points for bringing it up.

                      There's an interesting historical connection between my country India and Poland. Several Polish refugees found home in India during WW2. And i hear that they (i mean their descendants) still visit India frequently in gratitude. https://instytutpolski.pl/newdelhi/2020/12/02/polish-refugees-in-india/
