I'm sorry that there haven't been very many updates in the last few days ... after a few days of laying low and sleeping in, I've had a couple of crazy adventures! I took an unforgettable day trip to Caen on Friday and spent today hopping between sites, visiting first the Mémorial Mont-Valérien and then the Musée de la Résistance Nationale in Champigny-sur-Marne.
In the next few days, I'll upload more -- more posts, more photos, more factoids that only I find interesting! But for now, here are some snapshots of my adventures that just work best on their own.
Stumbled across this church in Caen. Very old. Very beautiful.

The walk to Point du Hoc.
Memorial on Omaha Beach.
Reflecting on the reflecting pool...?
