RE: My European Adventure: Part 2: Sacrifice and The Beaches of Normandy.

in #travelfeed7 years ago

Your photos are beautiful, there is so much beauty in that place. It is so sad to hear that such tragic event took place in that beautiful place with amazing views. I had no idea....

The people that lost their lives there sacrificed so much for humanity, i am so glad they were able to stop the spread of the Nazis, just so sad that they didn't leave to enjoy the peace and freedom.

The view of the beach is incredible, it is definitely calling out my name to go have some amazing time there.... Hopefully, someday!😊

@audreybits thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed my post! And indeed, it was very emotional to experience these places and learn the history and sacrifice of brave people, from the soldiers that invaded, to the French Resistance that committed over 1000 acts of sabotage against the Nazis in the days leading up, at risk of them and their whole family being killed if caught. And yes, the beaches are truly beautiful, which makes it that much more surreal. I hope you get to visit some day! :)
