Day 6 Saturday - April 23, 2016

This is our last full day in France, and we have had such a wonderful time in Arras it will be hard to depart, but tomorrow we are heading to Paris on the TGV and on to Rome by air.

On the top of the hill is Courcelette the site of the battle for Courcelette, the entire town was flattened, nothing left standing by 1918.

The Canadian Cemetery  at Courcelette

ADANAC is CANADA spelled backwards, this was done so we could have own cemetery  and not call it Canada, the Commonwealth Graves Commission was giving Canada a hard time so we fooled them.
