Drinking lots of beer at Hofbrauhaus. The empty glass is mine, which I finished in about ten minutes... the other girls took over an hour. The original building that served as the main entrance into the concentration camp. Crap. Now how do we get down from here without trampling the flowers? Answer: you wind up trampling them anyway. Oops! At a fountain in Munich. The main square of the camp where roll call was taken every day. The camp was originally built for 4-5,000 prisoners, by the time of it's liberation it held nearly 40,000 men.

Men in the barracks at the time of their liberation by U.S. forces. By the end the barrack rooms that were supposed to house 50 men now held over 500. The courtyard between the main building and the prisons... the place where punishments and executions were carried out. Looking at the inside of a cell from outside the closed door.
