Students realised that the mythical time, oft spoken of by adults, really did exist, when we left the hotel at 6.30 am and headed off, packed breakfast in hand, to visit Auschwitz. The weather was really foggy and quite eerie, which added to the atmosphere of the destination.
All ESJ Ambassadors were, yet again, amazing. Many visibly moved by the things they saw and heard. ...tough not to be! ...But so mature.
The imagery of many of the photos and the comentary from our guide, will provoc thought long after this trip is over, but also ensured that the aim to never let it be forgotten will certainly be achieved for all who attended there today.
After driving back to Krakow, we had some free time in Krakow old town,
...before meeting for dinner at the Hard Rock Cafe, awesome!
Such cool artifacts to see, like, Jimmie Hendrix poncho, John Lenon's scarf, Elton John's glasses, Noel Galagher's guitar, Brian Mays bat outfit, Led Zeppelin's gold microphone, to name drop but a few! ...food was not bad either.
And in their own words...

"When I was a young boy, my school took me to Berlin and Krakow, to see park Wodny, and that was where I lost it, all of my money, but my colleagues helped a brother out, now I can make it rain in Zlote" Words of wisdom. @harryruby3 insta.

That trip made happy like Kane when he sees chicken on a plate - Josh
This trip has been probably the best school trip I've ever gone on. It was really educational and a bit sad but also very funny like Kieran's aubergine (egg plant) and dinner at the Route 66 diner was really fun too. hopefully we can all come again at one stage. Nik Heinen 2016
