Elder Reil encouraged us to visit the Holocaust Monument and I'm so glad he did. It's a very somber place with big concrete slabs set at jarring angles. It evokes a very melancholy feeling that is only appropriate.
It's a reminder to teach our children to stand up against tyranny anyway that you can.
Pindigen Park is on the southeast corner of the Booth and Wellington intersection, while the Holocaust Monument is on the northeast. Across the street on the northwest is the Museum of War, pictured above with the 14 flags of Canada.
In the southwest corner is the Lilias W. Fleck fountain which was unearthed while renovating Lebreton Flats. In the late 1800s, this fountain provided water for man, horse, and dog. It was such a hot day out, I wish it still provided drinking water!
Behind the fountain was this lovely field of lavender.
Back at home, Macy finally flashed the camera one of her gorgeous smiles!
