Poland

Posted on May 4, 2026

From prayer moments to exploring family lineage in the files at the museum in Auschwitz. We took a long stroll through Birkenau which strengthened our constitution to depleting our legs. From castles to historic synagogues, to silly moments to Schindler’s factory where my Cantorial mentor Moshe Taube was identified his and his father as two of those whose lives were saved by him. We spent time to visit the Krakow ghetto and the Plaza where the Jews of Krakow would be assembled for roll call.
Said goodbye to Krakow by sharing a great meal at an Israeli themed Michelin recommended restaurant.
And then some people chose the Krakow challenge of their famed pizza loaves.

On to Warsaw for our last two days.
