In the afternoon on Friday 23rd June, we visited the Sir John Monash Centre. It was very sad and moving but an amazing memorial.
We then went to our hotel and had dinner at the lovely restaurant. We ended up going twice as it was very good. The next day, 24th June, we went and looked at the Somme river. We also visited Villers-Bretonneaux and the Victoria school. We also went to Corbie, Le Hamel, Peronne and Albert. At Peronne there was a very good museum of WW1.
On Sunday, 25th June, we visited the Beaumont-Hamel Newfoundland Memorial which was amazing and sad too. We did a guided tour of the trenches and the battles.
We had a nice lunch in a remote retaurant and then had to find dinner later that day. Being a Sunday hardly anything was open!!! Finally found a small supermarket and had bread and cheese.
