Long Weekend in France
We just returned form 3 days in France, visiting the Szunders once more. That is always a load of fun. Since there was no school on Monday and Tuesday and the Szunder kids were in school we went off to Verdun on Monday afternoon. We should of probably taken more time, but such is hindsight. We will return on another visit and do none of the tours at the forts, either Fort Douaumont or Fort Vaux.
On the way back to Frankfurt we unexpectedly completed a “military” weekend with a stop at The Lorraine American Cemetery and Memorial in the town of St. Avold, still in France but not far from the German border. We have driven past this on the A4 motorway many times, but never really raised that it is there and what is it. Really quite amazing and sobering, if you are in the area have a look.
