Dear Mom --
Lots of stuff happened this week and I have lots of pictures.
So instead of sending one long email, I am going to send lots of pictures with the stories and explanations that go with them.

This is the death camp in Poznań. It is called Fort 7.
The man in the middle is Marian. He is a member of our branch and gave us a tour of the camp.

Gas Chambers at Fort 7
The Nazis killed lots of Poles, Jews, and mentally-ill people here.
They actually said that Fort 7 here in Poznań
was the first Nazi Death Camp in Poland.

 |
| We went to a WW2 Concentration Camp with week.
The Nazis tortured and killed thousands of Polish people here. These are the Stairs of Death. It was a form of torture.
The Nazis would put something super super heavy on a persons back and force them to run up and down the stairs. They would also throw people down the stairs to torture them.

We took turns painting because there weren't enough paintbrushes.
So I played the guitar when it wasn't my turn! :)
