We decided not to take photos at Auschwitz or Auschwitz II-Birkenau, the tourists with selfie sticks under the "Arbeit macht frei" gate seemed just wrong but I had to take these couple from Auschwitz II-Birkenau just to show the scale. We must never forget.

Prep: A2 Platinum toddler milk 3... to put my one year old back to sleep + wet face (cold tap water)
Brush: WWB + Maggard SHD 24mm
Razor: Merkur 34c
Blade: Feather (3)
Lather: B&M Dickens Revisited
Post: Barrister’s Reserve Waves Splash + Nivea balm
Excellent shave this morning. Everyone else in the house still asleep. Loaded the brush heavy with lots of water and got a great face lather. I boil water in a kettle and put it in the bowl to really heat up and rinse the razor/blade during the shave. 3 passes, WTG and 2 x XTG.
Have a great weekend !
