8-25-15

So, last p-day, we headed to the Doku-Zentrum.  It's a museum about
the Nazi rallies in Nürnberg and the Nürnberg trails after the war.
It was so cool.  They gave us each this magnifying glass looking
thing, and every poster had a number on it that you would type into it
to get an English translation.  They also had films playing.  (They
were silent unless you pushed the number so as not to disturb the
others)

I took a lot more pics with my actual camera, but here are some I took
with the iPad:

1. Nürnberg the German city
2 & 3. At the end they had this rail track and it talked about all the
people who were transported to concentration camps via train.  Each of
those cards has one name on it, yet represents a thousand people.
(They actually didn't talk about the Holocaust that much.  Or the
actual war.)




we went to the church yesterday to call Albania.
I leave and you do all the fun stuff.  I'm sorry it's so quiet.  Good luck with adjusting to school life again.
So, about calling Albania...there is this cute Albanian couple we're teaching.  They speak very little English or German, so this amazing refugee whose been her seven months and has better German than me is translating for us. (They live in a refugee camp together and he translates for everyone he can.  He's amazing.) however, it is still difficult to teach and the poor translator has to do so much already, so we got permission to call the Albanian missionaries to see if they could teach them via Skype or FaceTime.  Whichever works best.
 

Love you too!
