Chicken Travels
Wednesday, March 16, 2005
  The Jewish Ghetto (is there any other kind of ghetto?) This morning, with a bit of a hangover, I went to visit the old Jewish Quarter of Warsaw. The entire area has been paved over with row apartment buildings. There is a trail of small monuments to mark the area, it's very clear that not many people want to remember the more than half a million Jews who were sent to concentration camps from this tiny area.

Apparently there is a Jewish museum opening in the area in 2006, and if I ever make it back, I'm intrigued to see what it ends up being.

Also visited the Warsaw Uprising memorial - which was absolutely breathtaking.

I'm leaving Genny's in a few minutes to go to the airport to Milan. Spending one night there, then back to the states on Thursday - just in time for the NCAA tourney. GO CUSE

I may not be a globetrotter (just yet) but if you can't find me at The Angry Chicken odds are that I'm on the road, and you can keep up here.
