Day 9: April 6, 2024
Today we move from World War 2 to WW1.
Our first visit is to Arras, a town completely destroyed in WW1, then again in WW2. A visit to the boves under the town hall was very interesting. Was also interesting to see a French town on Saturday, the squares alive with market stalls selling everything from fresh fruit, cheses , bread and clothing.
Vimy Ridge, a famous battlefield of World War 1 was really eye-opening, to stand in trenches and see just how close soldiers sat in trenches opposite their enemy.
Free time to stroll the Latin Quarter one last time, then dinner and one last crepe
