Today is our introduction to the beaches of Normandy; Sword, Gold, Juno and Omaha. In the next couple of days we'll be adding Utah. It's so strange to be be zipping by these beautiful beaches with the knowledge that 70 years ago these beaches were scenes of savage battles of inch by inch fighting.
Our hotel for the next three nights is located on Omaha Beach. It's so strange to be enjoying good meals and nice beds knowing that soldiers had die on this spot.
Tomorrow we'll visit the American Cemetery.
Till next time,
Brian
