The final act of the day was a memorial service around what I felt was a very strange memorial
However it wasn't the memorial that was important, but the words said by the Rabbi and the readings by people from our party. At the end of which we all lit a candle and left it on the memorial.
Above is mine and Joe's candles. We then began a very long walk back to the coach.
On the walk back we were very lucky to this bird fly into the field at the side of us. It's a white stork (had to check when I got home what it was!) Amazing to see!
The sun was beginning to set on the way back to the airport, but still got some photos of Poland
The flight back was delayed, because they said there were storms in Manchester. But when we finally got back, there hadn't been any!!!
We arrived back at Joe's at 2.05 am. Now that was a long day, and very physically and emotionally draining. Do I regret it? No way. Despite the physical pain (of which there were loads towards the end), it is experience I wouldn't have missed for the world.
So there is just the follow up seminar to go now, which I am really looking forward to.
