52. Take a tour of a concentration camp

I went to Manzanar, which was one of the ten camps where Japanese Americans were interned in the US during World War II.  It's very windy and dusty.  You can see Mt. Whitney from there, which is the highest mountain in the continental US.  It's very sharp and jagged, and there are a bunch of other jagged mountains right next to it, so it's hard to tell which one is which.  They all surround this big flat area where Manzanar sits.  It's pretty far out in the middle of nowhere.  The town we stayed in overnight was pretty small, and all the 18-wheelers had to pass down this road that was one lane each way right through the middle of town.  The only thing left at Manzanar is a big metal auditorium that now has the visitor center in it.  You can take a self-guide tour of the camp, but the only thing left is the occasional foundation.  There are little wooden signs stuck in the ground, but it mostly doesn't look like anything.
