I had the opportunity to visit Krakow and Gliwice, Poland, June 21 to July 8, with Habitat for Humanity. Instead of the usual project working with families who were investing "sweat equity" with us, this time we worked on rehab of a 106 year old building that was being developed as a shelter for abused and homeless women. It as a most rewarding experience, plus we got to visit Krakow (including the factory used by Oskar Schindler [and filmed in the movie "Schindler's List"] which is now a museum, the concentration and death camps at Auschwitz and Birkenau, and the Gliwice Radio Tower (the 110 meter tall wooden structure that was where WWII began). Below are links to the photos posted in Facebook. Make sure that you click on the first photo at each link so that you will get the full screen view and then cursor down on each photo so that you can see the description and comments.
