Addition to days 81 & 82 - Pictures of Berlin

As promised, here's the pictures from Wednesday and yesterday.

 The walk to the entrance
 The (in)famous sign on almost every concentration and death camp
 How the wall would have been set up
The beds that people would have had to sleep on
 The posts in the jail that prisoners would be hung from by their wrists
 Station Z's foundations, showing the gas chambers and shooting range
 Where the dead bodies with gold teeth or those who had been experimented on would go

Now for a little bit of a happier atmosphere
 The first view of the gardens
 Our favorite cherry blossom tree
 It was such a ice day that day
 We enjoyed this garden the most because of the tea house
 As you can see, this Chinese garden was beautiful
 The labyrinth we weren't able to go explore

This was for yesterday's post
 The Jewish museum (Holocaust axis). If you can see, the corridor gets smaller towards the back
 The back of this axis. It's almost touching out heads, where before it was many feet higher
 The cell we walked into (flash was on)
 The Torah
 The empty spaces throughout the museum
 I like this. It shows how the Jews were becoming more of a part of society. 
Also, notice the picture in the background...
 ...Look familiar?
OK, the tops of these blocks were mostly straight, the path just slopes and undulates downward.
This was at the hotel we ended up not staying at, so we had to put our luggage back on the bus.
Yeah, it was just that kind of day

And... that's it for the pictures of yesterday. Don't worry, I'll still be posting something for today's day at Otto Bock, but I wanted to get these up first.
