Day 7: March 29, 2023
Buongiorno!Let s go to Ortona guys! It is a nice coastal town and municipality of the Province of Chieti in the Italian region of Abruzzo, with some 23,000 inhabitants. We saw San Tommaso church, its Canadian cemetery and the war museumBattle of Ortona Museum shows photos of the battle, arms, uniforms and different arm artifacts. The Battle of Ortona was a battle fought between a battalion of German Fallschirmjäger, paratroops from the German 1st Parachute Division, and assaulting Canadian troops from the Canadian 1st Infantry Division. That was so interesting! In the afternoon we went to the beach!
