Today was a depressing day. I went to the Mauthausen Concentration Camp. I was able to view the quarry, the gas chamber, and more. At least I got a Magnum bar! We all drive to Rothenberg ob der Tauber in Germany, where we came to a small and simple bed and breakfast with BEDBUGS! Ugh! My skin is still crawling... Hannah and I were in the only bed with them. Yeah, we didn't sleep in that room at all.

Depressing, indeed. We humans need to learn to be kind without thinking about it. Have you read The Book Thief? I highly recommend it, it tells the story of a girl in Germany during WWII.
