Rouen France, work

France city street
Random street in Rouen.
French gargoyles
An ordinary Saturday morning.

Piece of slate fell from somewhere. It’s now in my daypack.
Brooklyn, New York poster French bathroom
Brooklyn, New York poster in a French Cafe bathroom.

Challenging to describe what the surroundings are like sitting on the ground in ‘center city’ Rouen.

Perfect weather, 71 degrees, mostly sunny.

Cheryl, Debbie and Kathleen are shopping nearby. i’m just chilling on the ground at a busy Saturday afternoon corner. Getting the feeling people think i’m a street corner beggar. For real.

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.
