Normandy

Today we visited Saint Mere Eglise, the first town liberated in France by the US.  Then we went to the beachheads of Utah, The Point, and Omaha.  We also went to the Normandy American Cemetary where over 8000 US troops are buried.  Very moving day.  We have a wonderful French guide Mathias who knew so much history about the Beachhead invasion on D Day.  Tiff, you would have learned a lot!
