Normandy

Here are some pictures from Normandy.  It was so peaceful there knowing there was a major war there years ago. It was a very moving day for us.

Here is a picture at the American Cemetery.  This is at the new visitors center.
To all the soldiers who died on the beaches along the Normandy coast
