Day at the U.N.

Thanks to a friend's invitation I was a guest for a special visit at the U.N. to view the "Auschwitz " exhibit , followed by a luncheon in the Delegates' dining lounge.

The exhibit is an interesting mixture of video presentation, with large black and white photographs on display, together with ax excellent collection of penciled drawings made by a Russian soldier on letterhead paper of the German Commandant of the camp, at the time of liberation!

The large dining lounge overlooking the East river is filled with people of all sorts, chatting and moving about to serve themselves at the buffet tables, displaying a variety of international dishes. The whole place offers a very relaxed atmosphere with excellent food and a great view.
