I will share pictures soon. But for now I am going to say wow. It was an amazing Holiday and remembrance. We all loved it.

Where were those pictures take of the tanks above. Next year we are going to try and plan ourselves better. We clocked up 2500+ miles in 12 days. It was brilliant and we saw ALOT.

It is a pleasure to share the pictures for people who can not come for D Day. If one day somebody want a guide, I m here ;) :haha: ( I don' t speak English very well. Writing is easier for me than speaking).

It was at Overlord museum, nearby the entry of American cemetery of Colleville sur Mer. The otherside of roundabout. :thumbup:

I made 2 visits there last week. 1 quick stop on Wednesday as we (Royal Marines Association Cycle Club) cycled through and got held up by a road closure and again for much longer on Saturday. A great place to visit.
