      6. Tag Mein 60. Geburtstag am Omaha B.

      13. juni, Frankrig ⋅ ☁️ 11 °C

      Was kann ich Heute schreiben, ausser dass mir meine Familie einen wunderschönen 60. Geburtstag gestaltet hat.
      Elena hatte Boris von Innen geschmückt und Henry und Renate haben draußen den Geburtstagstisch aufgebaut. Ich danke Euch von Herzen dafür Ihr Lieben ❣️ Danke natürlich auch für Eure Geschenke. Ich habe mich, wie ihr gesehen habt, sehr darüber gefreut.
      Wir sind dann gleich nach dem Frühstück runter zum Omaha Beach und waren mit Besichtigung der Gedenkstätten ect. bis zum Nachmittag beschäftigt.
      Nach dem Kaffeetrinken noch ein kurzes Nickerchen und dann um 18 Uhr Geburtstagsessen im Restaurant des Campingplatzes. ( Es regnete....)
      Das Essen war, so glaube ich, vom Geschmack her für uns alle eher durchwachsen.😅
      Morgen früh brechen wir hier die Zelte ab und ziehen weiter.
      Jute Nacht 💫      Læs mere

      Kleine Radrunde durch die Normandie

      22. juni, Frankrig ⋅ ☁️ 16 °C

      Ein herrlicher Sommertag bricht an und wir machen uns mit den Rädern auf, um eine kleine Runde entlang a bord du mer und durch's Inland zu drehen. Vorher noch schnell im cocci-Markt zwei frisch Baguettes erstanden, die dann für den Imbiss bei Rückkehr schon bereit liegen. Wir fahren im flotter Faht auf der Voie Verte de la Liberation genau auf der Steilküste am Meer in Richtung Grandcamp-Maisy, wo wir uns den alten Fischerhafen anschauen, bevor wir landeinwärts über ruhige Nebenstrassen und verträumte Dörfern zurück ins Camp pedalieren. Und heute bleibt die Knubbel-Küche kalt. Wir gönnen uns 2 mal Pommes an der Campingplatz-Friterie!Læs mere

      Omaha Beach & Normandy American Cemetery

      22. oktober 2023, Frankrig ⋅ ☀️ 54 °F

      This morning, we set off to visit the Normandy Beaches, the site of the allied forces' amphibious landing that began the liberation of Europe from Nazi Germany and led to the end of WWII.

      Our first stop was Omaha Beach, which, along with Utah Beach, was assigned to the American forces.

      We also toured the Normandy American Cemetery, the final resting place of so many young men who gave their lives to ensure our freedom.      Læs mere

      Wenn man historischen Orten so nah kommt, wird einem die Dimension bewußt. Omaha- Beach ist heute Synonym für Befreiung. Aber eben auch ein Ort des Mutes und des Sterbens. Dieser Tag hat uns sehr berührt.Læs mere

      Day 35 and 36

      25. september 2023, Frankrig ⋅ ☁️ 17 °C

      Day 35 - we did a walking tour of Rouen where Joan of Arc was burned at the stake in 1431. We visited the Joan of Arc church. At La Couronne restaurant, the oldest restaurant in France they serve "pressed duck" where they squeeze the duck blood and make it into a sauce. Yuk. This restaurant has a Michelin star rating.

      Day 36 - we started by visiting the Tapestry in Bayeux. The tapestry is an embroidered cloth nearly 70 metres long and 50 cm tall that depicts the events leading up to the Norman Conquest of England led by William the Conquerer challenging Harold II, King of England.

      From there we went to Juno Beach where the Canadian contingent of the D Day landing came ashore on 6 June, 1944.

      Next stop was the Pegasus Bridge Museum. The original bridge was removed and put in the museum grounds and a replica bridge was constructed in the original location. The taking of this bridge is still regarded as one of most daring and successful aviation missions of World War 2. The gliders carrying 25 soldiers each were used at night so that they could land undectected as the bridge needed to be taken in tact.

      Our final stop was at the Ranville War Cemetery where John and I placed a wreath provided by Viking Cruises at the foot of the only two Australian airmen buried there. The Australian National Anthem was then played and a minute's silence observed.

      I luoghi dello sbarco in Normandia

      18. august 2023, Frankrig ⋅ ⛅ 23 °C

      Iniziamo dalle spiagge dello sbarco delle truppe americane, Utha beach e Omaha beach, dove visitiamo il piccolo Museo del memoriale. Ci sono tantissimi musei, memoriali e reperti storici anche lungo la strada che collega i diversi luoghi d'interesse. Ero già stata qui nel 2003 e trovo che adesso sia tutto troppo "turistico". Il giro in auto sulla jeep militare, i ristoranti con i carrarmati...🤐
      Personalmente non la trovo una bella cosa...ma è solo la mia opinione.
      Proseguiamo verso Saint Mére Eglise, un piccolo borgo in cui, nella notte tra il 5 e il 6 giugno 1944, si lanciarono diverse dozzine di paracadutisti americani. Il soldato John Steel rimase appeso per due ore sul campanile della chiesa, prima di essere fatto prigioniero dai tedeschi. Tuttavia, riuscì a fuggire per tornare in Inghilterra.
      Proseguiamo verso Point du Hoc, diventato famoso nella storia del Novecento per la battaglia svoltasi all'alba del 6 giugno 1944, tra le truppe scelte dell'esercito degli Stati Uniti e le forze tedesche.
      Nel 2003 i segni dei bombardamenti erano molto più evidenti ed era possibile camminare liberamente tra i crateri. Oggi, per preservare l'ambiente e rallentare il deterioramento del tempo sui resti della battaglia, è stato creato un percorso obbligato. È ancora possibile visitare i bunkers tedeschi.
      Da Point du Hoc ci rechiamo al cimitero americano, un luogo suggestivo dove si realizza la drammaticità degli eventi del 1944. Una distesa infinita di croci bianche ci ricorda in quanti persero la vita combattendo per la libertà.
      Concludiamo il nostro tour con la spiaggia di Arromanches, luogo di sbarco degli inglesi, in cui sono ancora visibili i pontili del porto artificiale creato dalle truppe alleate, conosciuto anche come Port Mulberry.      Læs mere

      Normandy France

      17. juni 2023, Frankrig ⋅ ☁️ 73 °F

      Saturday, June 17th. We drove to Etretat. We didn't know where to park as we had never been there before. We finally just watched everyone else and parked. The parking machines were not working to take credit cards. We started on the wrong path by the golf course. We cut behind some houses and ended up having a spectacular view of the beach. The town looked so cute! We want to go back sometime and explore it. As we were walking back to the car, Anya found a piece of pottery in the mud. It was a rainy day. We put it in the bungalow fountain when we returned home.

      Étretat is best known for its chalk cliffs, including three natural arches and a pointed formation called L'Aiguille or the Needle, which rises 230 ft above the sea. These cliffs and the associated resort beach attracted artists including Eugène Boudin, Charles Daubigny, Gustave Courbet, and Claude Monet. Claude Monet did several paintings in the area, particularly of the natural cliff arches and stacks.

      We drove through Honfleur, and they were having a huge market day in town. Drove by Sword Beach and went to the American Cemetery. Of course, it was so moving. We stopped at a grocery to get flowers so we could lay them on graves while we were there. We also picked some flowers to place on graves. It was beautiful and haunting to visit. We took photos of Omaha Beach and we were all moved by the visit especially when they were playing Taps as we were leaving.

      We also went to the Pegasus Bridge and Museum today and enjoyed all the exhibits and the bridge behind the museum.

      Mikel and I took turns driving and we went back to Le Havre. It was storming and we went to one cafe and had to move to a better one. It was a nice dinner while it rained. The fire alarm was going off at the hotel as we went to dinner. We walked along the beachfront on the way home.      Læs mere

      Omaha Beach

      3. september 2023, Frankrig ⋅ ☀️ 75 °F

      Omaha was the tougher landing due to the bombardment missing the area by a 1/2 mile (weather). The high and heavy reinforced German positions made it near impossible. Troops kept coming in, 20 minute wave after wave. They needed a route off the beach to bring in tanks, equipment, and supplies. The navy realized the troops were getting slaughtered and drove two gunner ships to ground to allow for more accuracy to take out enemy positions. Mulberry A was built at this location to bring in more troops and equipment. This was knocked out by a storm 10 days later ( leaving only Mulberry B). Houses were destroyed by the Germans (all but 1 for the officers) near the beach, later rebuilt. You can see the size of Point du Hoc from this position and Utah in the distance. EVER FORWARD.Læs mere
