Normandy tour

We went on a tour up to Normandy this morning. We went to the D-Day Museum in Caen first. We went to Omaha Beach where the United States Army had landed. We toured some old German bunkers that had been on the cliffs since France was occupied by Germany during most of the second world war. We then went to Juno Beach where the Canadians landed on June 6, 1944 during the D-Day invasion. It was amazing to see what faced the soldiers as they got off their boats and had to climb into the water and then run up the beaches and in many cases up the hill or Cliff's to reach the enemy. All the while, there is heavy German artillery fire bombarding towards them. There was a great loss of life.
