Our last day in Amsterdam was an emotional one. Not only were we leaving a beautiful city the next day but we were going to see the Anne Frank museum. We started the day going to seeing the city and the Jewish district. It was cool but heartbreaking to see these little stones that were placed out side peoples houses in memory of the people that had died in holocaust camps.

Another thing we went to do is see an old and very traditional synagogue which was beautiful. It was really cool to walk through with the headset. It felt like we were apart of the synagogue because we were interacting in it to listen to the facts. I found it intresting to learn about the rolls of the woman. One section of the synagogue there was a bath tub and we learned that while a woman was on her period she was not allowed to go near her husband because she was seen as unclean. After her period was over she had to take a bath in that tub and be checked before she could see her husband again. I found that to be really intense but interesting.

My favorite part of the day was walking through the Anne Frank Museum. Julie and I walked through it by ourselves and it was very emotional. We took out time and read every card and every wall piece there was to read. I remember at one point Julie turned to me and just shook her head. We couldn’t even imagine the situation the family was in and I am so impressed how strong they are.

I am going to miss Europe a lot I am so impressed with how much I learned. Also this was one of the best “grilled cheeses” ever and its kosher.
