This memorial, dark and lit by a single, everlasting flame, lists the concentration/extermination camps.
Inna and Daniel look thoughtfully at the memorial.
Next stop was a couple sculptures in the courtyard. This one portrays the Jews going into "exile", perhaps lef to their deaths. The bearded man in the middle is holding a Torah, and seems to exude strength and hope.
This sculpture is about the Resistance in the Warsaw Ghetto. Starving and weak, they nonetheless stood up to their German oppressors, but it was too late...
This is an actual cattle car used to transport Jews to their final destination. There is only one other in existence today. It is displayed here on a bridge to nowhere.
We all sat nearby, and heard about the experiences of some survivors of the terrible journey on the trains.
Yael played a tape of a song about the last Jews in the Warsaw ghetto.
Afterwards, we entered the museum, which takes us through the history of anti-semitism and the German oppression and Holocaust.
Dina and the Berzanskys look at a scale model of a concentration camp.
Next was Mt. Herzl, the cemetery of Israel's most famous modern personages, where Daniel, Karen, and Dina, along with everyone else, enjoyed lunch.
A menorah logo and the words "Har Herzl" in Hebrew grace the entrance to the cemetery.
Here are the final resting places of Prime Minsiter Yitzhak Rabin and his wife, Leah.
