Hotel de France Isigny-sur-Mer

... at each scene on the tapestry. Without it you would find it hard to depicher the story and miss the little details which bought the tapestry to life. <br> The town of Bayeux itself is gorgeous and miracouslouly escaped WWII bombing...even though it was only 10km inland from the D-Day beaches

We had a busy day ahead so we set our alarm for 7am as its still dark at that time and so getting out of bed early has not been easy. I woke to the smell of coffee brewing and scrambled eggs in bed. The deal is I drive and Kim cooks. <br><br>After breakfast we walked over to the beach and on this beautiful sunny morning we found it hard to imagine the blood shed that occurred in 1944. From ...

... many. My French guide made the comment as we explored Normandy... "I may have been speaking German now to you if it were not for those that fought here." Their sacrifice affects many, and touches many... as my guide gave us the details of the American Cemetery, the Australian man next to me had to excuse himself. There is not much else to say, but, Thank you.

... documentaries were shown on television.<br>Yvette, who now lived in a town about 100 miles from St.-Mère-Église, was watching one of these, when the microphone was put in front of a man who said he had been a paratrooper saved by a beautiful French girl in the back garden of her house. Yvette realized this was Cliff<br>Maugham, who she had thought of frequently through the years. Somehow, the documentary crew found out about Yvette, brought her up to St.-Mère-Église, and ...

... There's an audioguide that goes with it so you can walk along the length of the tapestry and understand what's going on. (Hint: The Duke of Normandy is more commonly known as William the Conqueror.) Anyway, I was really pleased to see it.<br><br>Yvonne went on to the cathedral (which is pretty nice from the outside; good gargoyles), and I went back to the hotel to get my laundry and go across the street to a laundrette. It took me a while to figure out how to pay ...

Sorry, this is really late. I was hoping to receive a photo from our last hosts that would have been fantastic for this entry, but it just isn't going to happen in a timely fashion. So, it&#8217;s time to send this out and the photo will be added when we get it. <br><br>After a lovely night with our friends Sarah and Nissim (and their kitty) in Paris, we headed to Normandy for a new kind of travel. We signed up with an international organization called ...

... I wipe them away and head on, taking in the sites and sounds. Sam asks, "Dad, what is this place? What are we doing here?" ... and I start to tell a simplified version to him about the evil man Hitler, and the horrible things he did, and how all the good guys came together to fight him ... and as I do, my voice cracks, and I have to pause or the tears will stream again. My friend Bruce asked me to tell him my experience here. The way he put it, he wanted ...

... knockoff of the British Bren gun. They also had a PAK40 which was introduced to quickly counter the Russian T34's sloped armor that the smaller PAKs had issues with. There was also a "105 here." :-) I sure miss hearing that phrase. Play COH sometime to understand. There was a short movie on D-Day and the retaking of France. Not bad and contained some war footage I had not seen. After that, there were a few more vehicles such as a Bulldozer ...
