Omaha Beach

Today was eye-opening and moving.  We went to the D-day Omaha Beach and American Cemetery, it was such an amazing experience. I was truly overcome with awe - so many men lost their lives there. Coming here helped me see the reality of war; the horrors, but also the resulting unity and respect.  Being here brought me to tears, but I'm grateful for the people who sacrificed their lives as they stood up for what they believed was right. 





After, we drove to Bayeux. It's a pretty cool little town, the best part is the cathedral. But I ate the best dinner here, so that rocked too.
