The cheapest flight to Israel this time was with LOT, the polish airline.  I decided to make a holiday out of it, and I took the train down to Krakow to meet-up with my friend Katarzyna who lives there.  While in Krakow, I was able to have Shabbat dinner at the Jewish Community Center that Prince Charles and World Jewish Relief built.  I ate, drank alot of Polish hot chocolate (it is amazing), and toured Krakow's beautiful streets and buildings.  I even slayed the dragon of the Castel of Krakow.  On Sunday, I decided to visit Auschwitz and Birkenau - where the German Nazi's executed/tortured over 1,500,000 people.  1.5 MILLION PEOPLE, mainly Jews.  It was hard, but I am glad I have experienced it.  While there, I slipped on the ice and fell pretty hard.  My camera was smashed - and is now broken, but I was able to get some photos with my iphone (thankfully).  
Here are some of the photos I took there.
