August 29: We packed up and left Karl and Maria's Forest Farm and headed to Arromanches and the D-Day beaches. We are staying in the Hotel Marine right on Gold Beach with the remains of Winston's harbor off shore. The tides here go out dramatically, although not the 22 km you find at Mont Sant Michel, about 800 meters. This is the sight of the British landing and is called Gold Beach. The people at the hotel are very nice and have arranged an all day tour of the D-Day Beaches for tomorrow.
