Day 4 Dachau

Spent the day at Dachau Concentration Camp. It was the first camp under Hitler’s reign and served as the training grounds for the SS killing squad. We toured the bunks, roll call grounds, gas chambers, and crematoriums. Thousands of individuals lost their lives because of hate. They were labeled and tortured because they were Jewish, or gay, or immigrants, or held differing religious/political views, etc. It was more than sad and some similarities to current world sentiment are beyond frightening. The words on the memorial say “NEVER AGAIN”. One would hope we have learned important lessons from those that have gone before us. #moreLOVE

Day 3 Saurlach

Traveled to Saurlach to meet up with the orchestra. The local families here hosted a wonderful reception before the first scheduled performance (see 5 o’clock performance)  at the SommerTime Fest! 


Munich Day 1

We made it to Munich, figured out the subway system, early check-in and clean up and hit the city! Finished the day at a traditional Bier Garten for dinner under the twinkling lights. 

Last Morning Wish

Thanks to Babita,Sameer, and Suman for making my wish for my last morning here come true. I have always wanted to do something to reach out to the very poorest of Nepal. So, we bought food and made over 100 packets of noodles, crackers and juice and went on scooters to distribute to the street children living in the dirt on the sides of the roads. Pure desperation… NEVER experienced anything like this encounter. It will take a while to process this experience. My heart is so so full!!
