The story...
This is the family photo I should have put up on the first post- it was cold.
On our way from Paris to Baumholder, germany... Rich took us through Bastogne, Belgium. The city where the Battle of the bulge happened during WW II. What an unexpected surprise. We are going to Normandy next week and this was not on our radar. You can't help but get emotional as you see the memorial and read the description of what took place here engraved on the tall walls. Then we went to the forest where the battle took place, it was a little dark for us to find the foxholes. The local boy scouts keep the foxholes kept up. WOW. What a sacrifice that was made by my grampa and the thousands of other men and women we all know to give us the freedom we now live in!!!
On the top you can warm meat or bread.

Ok, so there are a couple of these "swimming pools" at the beach in St. Gille. It appears that they have created a 2-3 foot or so wall so that when the tide comes in it fills it and keeps it full for kids and others to swim in. We actually saw someone swimming in it.
The tide goes in and out so high that this boat was way up on the wall in the picture below, like close enough where I could take about 6 steps down the ladder and jump in, then about 2 hours later it was down in the mud.
A little spot where we read, ate a snack and just chilled for a couple hours... Right on the beach.
The front of the Dubois Home... super cute.
The view from where we were sitting, reading and eating some pizza with goat cheese.
Michelle's little cafe...
Another car I want to bring home.
