Poland,,,what do you think?

I'm from the USA,,,My wanna do in a year or so is visit poland,,and visit " The Camps",,,visit history,,and the club's,,,are American's welcome there?,,,any one ever been or seen the "museum"?,,,It's dark but I like knowing history,,,?

most the polish have invaded the UK so you should be fine

Is that a "Bad Thing"? lol...

No one will care if ure american or not as long as you dont "do a brit" - get wasted and go pissing on some monument or something. As for the "camps" they`re dark and depressing places to visit, but as you said - it`s part of history and worth seeing.

Thanks madman,,,I can control myself...especially in such Places...Thank you,,,

There's no anti-Americanism there, quite the opposite these days: an ongoing curiosity about all things 'western' since Poland is still coming out of the Soviet era. I live in east Germany not so far from the Polish border and visited Auschwitz a couple of summers ago, with a New York Jewish friend of Polish extraction.

The camp was an even darker experience than I expected it to be, but profound as well and I'm glad I went. I prepared a bit with reading and watching documentaries. You should see Lanzmanns' 'Shoah', it will give you a very good context from which to better understand the history.

Tourist infrastructure there while rapidly evolving is still sub-western standards. Service is poor to entirely absent, staff tend to be bureacratic, unfriendly and unhelpful - they haven't yet learned the plastic smile and the 'have a nice day'.
