An emotional and significant journey awaits. 6 weeks until departure.

My grandfather landed on the shores of Gallipoli 25 April 1915.

It's an honour to accompany my darling 90 year old mum (his daughter) to attend the commemoration ceremony.

She's a grandmother and great-grandmother. I'm a grandmother...Grandmas in Gallipoli.
