CALL MY DIARY WHEN TRAVELING

I was going to take a bus to Auschwitz concentration camp. When the journey passed more than a half, there were only me and an elder couple on the bus. The couple then got off. And while my brain was still trying to figure out things, suddenly, the driver turned the sign board labeled ”Auschwitz” to the back, which made me start to be nervous because I thought it was as a gesture to say “this is the final destination, we won’t take any travelers from now on.”

I finally arrived at Auschwitz concentration camp. Looking at the stretching-down tree branches with the grey sky as background, a gloomy feeling just came. If someone asks me how I felt when I visited there. I would say: I was blank. I'm not sure which situation I was in, but there’s one thing I am 100% sure, which is: “The human spirit must be kept alive.”

I'm excited to hear anything from you!!
