In Caen, France for the Balkan festival. Caen is also home to the historical center of the invasion of Normandy 70 years ago. Went to Juno and Omaha beach today. It is hard to fathom so many young men wading through the water straight into the throngs of the Nazi guns. The 31 kilometers of beach is basically empty, no doubt the most powerful memorial one could imagine. The first two photos are of the beach. The last are Gerald and Mariame, my hosts for the day. They cooked me a lunch of steak, french fries, salad and apple tart. And of course wine.
