Caudebec France-day 2, work

Quite about Omaha beach on D-Day
The bloodiest most brutal phase was the first wave of American soldiers.
Normandy invasion stats
The day (D-Day) went militarily better than expected, apparently according to subject matter experts.

Knew next to nothing about D-Day’s incredible strategy and worldwide collaboration, and operational secrecy.

God bless peaceful intentions and peaceful leaders.

Paris to Normandy Cruise, work

Paris
In the taxi on a 1.5 mile ride to our “Port of call”.

One map said Port was 10 miles away. Another map said it was 1.7 miles away.

It was closer.

Grateful.

For all of it.

Arrive Paris a day early, work

Senior couple at Eiffel tower
Under one mile walk to here. Sunny, 60-degrees at midday.

Jet-lag is real.

We pressed on anyway.
