Day 12.... I took NO pictures!!! :) We shoped at the BX, we shiped some of our camping stuff back home, we ate at chilies, we did laundry, we played video games.... It was a relaxing break after 11 days of traveling & camping.
But Day 13.............. We hit the road again!
April 29
Of to the Country of Luxembourg
American Cemetery
"The soldiers graves are the greatest preachers of peace."
The cemetery has been redone. It used to only have small stone markers.
Above is a photo of the original grave markers.
Its an odd errie feeling to stand in the presence of such evil destruction.
You wonder... did they all know what/who they were fighting for?
Did they understand the huge scale of terror they brought to so many innocent lives?
Or did they march behind their country in an oblivious march serving what they thought to be their freedom?
They were mowing that day, it would have been interesting to have seen it the day before.
The american cemetery I am sure never has time to grow a weed. The grounds are manicured so
precisely. These look to be taken care of when its convenient.
Munster, Germany
We met my friend Camille and she showed us a few things around her wonderful city!
