It just boggles the mind. People were very quiet and reverent as they went through the house as I think everyone could still feel the emotions running through the place. It was a very humbling and rewarding experience.Curling up by the Firehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08469976660269940990noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3225509207139912540.post-33632291591317487292010-05-08T04:36:17.465+02:002010-05-08T04:36:17.465+02:00I read the book too and meant to read it again.

We watched Inglorious Basterds recently and there's a scene where the Nazis come into a house and the Jewish people hide under the floor. It's chilling.Gale Stanleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05204257353139908750noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3225509207139912540.post-56239724699817573442010-05-08T01:00:18.831+02:002010-05-08T01:00:18.831+02:00Reading this made me want to read 'Anne Frank&...Reading this made me want to read 'Anne Frank's Diary', all over again.

Such a terrible waste of a precious spirit, she was a bright star snuffed out way too early but I have hope that the diaries she left behind will help to show and remind the world that this must never, ever happen again.Rachel Lynnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15558320176729409822noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3225509207139912540.post-87661649309005309972010-05-07T18:55:10.770+02:002010-05-07T18:55:10.770+02:00Riley,
