Any chance the status page will start reflecting these issues? I try to stay off a system if it’s having an issue, wait for the status page to give the all clear.

Meudt, Germany - We attended a gathering of the descendants of the Jewish families that once lived in Meudt. We then went to the Jewish Cemetery for a Holocaust remembrance ceremony. Pictured are the gravestones of some of the family members that once lived in the town.

Essen, Germany - We visited the Ruhr Museum, which is built on the site of the former coal mining facility. It was a massive complex to process the coal. The museum was great. I got a frankfurter.

Enschede, Netherlands - We did some exploring around the city, which was an interesting mix of old history and young college life. It was a melting pot of culture in a very old city. Here’s Josh posing in front of some art we found.

Enschede, Netherlands - We visited the synagogue that Walter had his Bar Mitzvah prior to going into hiding in the Netherlands. The synagogue was huge, once housing a congregation of over 1,300. Now, the congregation is around 35 people.

Bocholt, Germany - We played Kegelbahn, the German version of bowling (they also have bowling). It was a very different game, but it was fun! We had falafel and kebabs for dinner.

Aalten, Netherlands - We visited the Aalten museum, which has a large, permanent exhibit related to the Holocaust period. We saw the house a family lived in, with 9 people hidden in the attic and a Nazi soldier taking over a room to use as a base of operations.

Aalten, Netherlands - We visited the synagogue in Aalten, which doesn’t have a congregation anymore, but teaches about the history of the Jewish people that once lived in the town. Josh stands in front of the Holy Ark that houses multiple Torahs.

Bocholt, Germany - We attended the St. Martin’s Procession, a parade with up to 3,000 students singing, plus teachers playing instruments.
Kiddos hollowed out large turnips and decorated them, similar to a jack-o’-lantern, and attached sticks to carry them.
