March 31st

Today was very sad! We went to the Concintration Camp in the mountains. They were beautiful and we saw some snow.. but the museum was very sad. Today I learned about when the people got whipped for doing things wrong.. they usually got around 50 lashes and most died before the 50 were over. I also learned that the people commited suicide alot and hung themselves so they didn`t have to live the terriable life. I saw where they were isolated as a punishment and cramed in a small room for a long time until they died without being able to lie down, sit, or stand. It was very sad.. but I noticed that the place where we were was a very important place to be quiet and respect that many people died there and should be respectful about that.
