A serious day

After our day of crazy fun, we had a sobering day yesterday in Vilnius, Lithuania. We visited the KGB museum which is to commemorate the Russian persecution of lithuian Jews and government supporters. What I hadn't thought of before was how recent the persecution was.  The Russians and KGB were here till 1991. 

 

 

An isolation cell
 

Below is a torture cell. The cell is flooded too depth of a few inches.  The prisoner stands on the circle stand in the middle of the room.  They eventually fall into the water, then get up and stand on the circle while wet and cold.  They eventually die.
