Ok so we had a free day today and thought it would be fun to explore the Jewish ghetto, and in particular see Schindler's factory, which Schindler's List is based on. Well talk about a disappointment!!
We walked for about 35 minutes in rather hot weather, going through the back roads of an industrial area full of old run down buildings to get to..... well this old, run down building. You cant get inside, there is no information about it, but you do see a few other similarly baffled tourists around. Well at least we've been there!
Troy has also become a mad rapper. For the sanity of the Bartholomew family, I really hope he snaps out of it before he gets home. Here is an example:
Troy: Wow look at that blood on the road!
Chris: Yeah, looks like someone got a stray punch.
Troy: Yeah. Yeah. P to the unch. Punch. Stray punch for lunch. (Troy then bursts into uncontrollable laughter over his apparent genius)
Its quite a site. We are just relaxing at the hostel now for a few more hours then off to Berlin. Just over a week to go now!

Hi Chris. I know now why we called you 'Christopher'. St Christopher is the patron saint of travellers. Handing over to Tony. Huge win to South Africa in the cricket. Deans' Australians beat SA 16-9. Deans vs Henry this Saturday. Take care of the last week. Love Dad

Hi Chris and Troy,
It's 6.07pm here Monday 22 July here in wet and windy Hamilton!
I believe the two of you should be in Munich if the itinerary I found lying around at Admiral Crescent is correct.
It's been great following your progress and I've enjoyed your travelog, photos and videos very much. I had a thorough read through this morning and felt a bit exhausted like I had watched a couple of episodes of THE AMAZING RACE!!
Take care and have a safe trip back to NZ next week. Sorry I won't be here on your return to hear more about it first hand as I'm off to CHC in the morning and back to MEL the day before you land in AKL.
Love and best wishes from Uncle T.
All the best for the final days, in Germany and then towards Aotearoa...
Dad.. Great blog!
Hi Boys, Well maybe there is a chance we will become a music family after all. Troy rapping and Keegan on the guitar you just never know. Well just about to the end. It has been amazing following you along in your journey but am looking forward to seeing you both again but how are you going to manage without each other. Well know doubt chris will be pleased not to share his shoulder with you Troy. Trust your drive on the auto bhan goes well and look forward to hearing about it. Five more sleeps. Love Mum xoxo
