    Naours

    September 12 in France ⋅ 🌬 15 °C

    Started after breakfast with a visit to the underground city of Naours. Built long ago their war history is as a tourist attraction for ANZAC soldiers on R & R. Names inscribed on the walls and then what happened to them when they returned to the front lines - mostly tragic of course. Also used by the German's in WWII.
    Then bought lunch and went to Commonwealth war cemetery at Heilly Station - a location of a medical treatment station. The soldiers were buried here who didn't make it past the station. Both Aussie and Kiwi.
    Back to the hotel; cold beer and dinner.
