Favorite trip in Europe so far...hands down. We took a lot of pictures, but unless you see it in person, pictures cannot do these sites any justice. They are beautiful beyond words and when you stop to think about what happened in each particular place - wow. Just wow. So grateful.

| The monument at Pointe du Hoc - a knife sticking into the ground to remember the brave soldiers who fought there. |
