Juno Ceremony

Juno was a mad house. We waited in the heat for 3 and 1/2 hours. Health workers handed out water and veterans were invited into the Centre to get out of the heat. If you got a chair you were lucky. I got lucky and Ken got very lucky..... He was six rows back from the memorial.

The best pics I have are the ones below.

Security on Juno Beach no one could go out there.

This next series of pictures is from the beach that many Canadian soldiers landed on at Courselles Sur Mer. The next town, Bernieres sur Mer is where Cpl. Francis Weitzel landed.

Normandy June 2014

We arrived in Normandy June 3 and can honestly say we have not had any time to post mon this travel blog!

We visited so many places around Juno Beach as well as Beny Sur Mer (the Commonwealth Cemetery), that we virtually had no extra time.  We also got the chance to visit Buron, where Ken's Uncle was killed.  More about that later. 

I'll upload some of the best pics and events.  

All the above pictures are from the Juno Centre museum.
