After we were in Warsaw for a few days we headed to Krakow, the cultural capital of Poland. This is at Wawel Castle where many Polish national heroes are entombed.
Ben was put in charge of the girls for exactly 1.5 hours while I toured the castle with mom and mary, and this is how I found poor Emily... strapped to a harness and bungie cord ready for lift off. Her facial expression reveals just how good of an idea she thought this was. Another moment when Ben was in charge of the girls. He found a decapitated head sculpture on the town square and thought it was the coolest thing he ever encountered.

Ben, Mom, and Mary visited Auschwitz one day, while I stayed back at the apt. with the girls. I hope to make it there before we leave. A very sobering experience.
Mary and Ben waiting for the train. Cool picture.
And after the cold rainy day at the concentration camp we all went to a fun cozy restaurant with a renewed appreciation for each other, our family, our health, our liberties, and all our many blessings. Cheesy, but true.
