D-Day Beaches

---

This was an interesting day! For a number of reasons

1. I got to drive the car
2. GD thinks he is claiming on our insurance for whip lash

All jokes aside, it was certainly an interest insight to how GD and I operate. We laugh about it now!

We traveled to the D-day beaches of Normandy. The first place we went was the cemetery, and it is such a humbling experience just to realise just how many people lost their lives on that one mission - I still get goose bumps thinking about it! A picture tells a thousand words in this case the rows of tomb stone crosses just go for miles.

From here we headed to Point du Hoc Ranger Memorial - this is where the American soldiers scaled 30m cliffs. The ground is still pockmarked with 3m bomb craters; if they were cemented they would make a neat skate bowl.
