Every Sunday, we make a promenade.


Breslau, Germany, 1944. My Mom and three other Displaced Persons go for a nice walk.

UPDATE: I add context for this photo here.

We've had a bonanza day! Mom just came upstairs with a box full of photos I'd never even seen. Many of them feature people in fashionable 1940s clothing.

Think about this: these people were war refugees. No money, no jobs, no country, but lots of style.
