Normandy Day 5: Another relaxing day in BĂ©nouville today. A little ride around doing a food shop & visit to the excellent Pegasus Bridge Memorial museum. Itâs been a great week away. đ A short ride up to Ouistreham & the early ferry back to Portsmouth tomorrow.
Normandy Day 4: Bayeux to BĂ©nouville via Gold Beach, Arromanches, the British Normandy Memorial, Juno Beach, Sword Beach & Pegasus Bridge. A really nice ride in lovely weather but plenty of thoughts of what once was and how lucky we are.
