France Tour
Set off for Ypres (Belgium). Saw wind farms and some nice little villages. Stopped a memorial site. Once in Belgium we pulled up to war cemetery (there are quite a few!) Extremely moving and thought provoking. Drove into Ypres where we are staying tonight. My goodness! Possibly one of the most beautiful places I have ever seen! Absolutely jaw dropping!
Just come back from the Menin Gate Ceremony. They used three buglers for the Last Post and Rouse. Truly moving...to think that we will be a part of that next year is beyond words. Truly a once in a lifetime moment.

Alyson VG How wonderful, Jan! I just realised it was 1993 when I did a similar trip with the Army Band. When you go, it will be 20 years since that trip. So excited for you and the students - such a wonderful experience that I'm sure they (and you) will never forget! Keep the blog posts coming and stay safe!
Mark, Judy & Lauren It sounds fantastic, the band will have a trip of a lifetime. Keep the blogs coming! Stay safe.
