June 22--D-Day Beaches & Bayeux Tapestry

Today we met our guide Alex and delved into D-Day history with visits to a British cemetery, a German cemetery, Point du Hoc (where we explored bunkers and bomb craters while taking in the views of Utah and Omaha beaches), and the American cemetery Coleville sur Mer. We placed flags at some of the American graves to honor the fallen. Lunch at a traditional food truck in Coleville sur Mer where we tried out new French foods and snacks. Back in Bayeux, we visited the cathedral near our hotel and then experienced the thousand-year-old Bayeux Tapestry. Another delicious dinner at the hotel. What a great day.
