My wife and I took a trip to France this week. Most was spent in Paris but today we went to Normandy to see the landing beaches and U.S. Cemetery there.
It was an amazing trip. Seeing the scale of the beaches, the obstacles faced, and the overall system of defenses makes me wonder even more than ever how the U.S., Canadian, and British troops succeeded.
I can't up upload photos right now but let me just say that it was a trip that makes you really understand how great an acheivment it was. You also get a chance to understand the human sacrifice made to keep people free.
