Holocaust Museum

Saw the team off at 2am, slept in until about 8, when some drilling in the room upstairs became too obnoxious to ignore.

Breakfast and lunch: a couple of small danishes. Ok, four to be exact.

Then off to the holocaust museum for the second time to pick up where I left off. Another deluge of data and feelings and shame that my humanity is capable of this. Is capable of such systematic and sustained barbarism. I say my humanity since the Germans, those cultured guardians of civilization in Europe, expressed the depravity that lurks in us all.

Four-and-a-half hours later, I'm shooed from the museum with many others. Evil may never sleep, but the curators do, and so it's closing time.
