Got a later start than expected since we have no Jeff on this trip to figure out the train system. Ended up on the 10:43 train to Caen rather than the 8:30. Still got to see several things in the area and we got into a tour for tomorrow (today actually). Went and saw Omaha Beach just in case the tour doesn’t give us enough time there. The beach is now just your average summer time hangout, but being there is still a powerful experience if your appreciate the history. We got to the American Cemetery just after it closed and if we don’t get back before we leave it will be something I really regret missing. Ended the night in a pub in Bayeux watching So. Africa shut out England in a World Cup rugby match (going on in Paris now),surrounded by irate Englishmen.
