Belgium 2/3

Market day!

What a wonderful,colorful morning.

Strawberries are in season and they are delicious.


And the choice of fish is amazing!

Then it was back in the car for some touring.

This is Tyne Cot,

nicknamed after Tyneside cottages by the troops.

 

This is the most visited war grave in the world.

There are 12,000 British, Australians, Canadians and New zealanders buried here

and the names of 35,000 never found, carved on the surrounding wall.

  2. Commenting via new iPhone! Very cold at market. Photos of graves are powerful reminders of war.
