Normandy

Fri Oct 23, 2009, 4:31 AM
Well, last night at 11:30 I came back from France, Normandy.
I do history GCSE and there's a trip every year to go to Normandy.
We went to Utah Beach; the beach where the Britsh landed (Gold beach, right?); and the American, British and German cemeteries. We also went to museums, Pegasus Bridge and some other places I'll probably remember as I write.
So at school I wait, the air is cold and my sister is whining too. Eventually the teachers give a talk, take a register and we board the coach. Now I don't remember a whole lot :S I think Band Of Brothers was put on after a while and we watched that, which made everyone sleepy.
Then we got to the ferry.
It was already very late and I think we had about an hour or half an hour before we had to be actually in bed and lights off.
We had less than five hours sleep.
The lastest to sleep was midnight and we got up half four. (France is an hour ahead but time on the boat was British time).
Morning was still dark and it was hard to seperate the days.
We set off first to a museum were we had breakfast (my itinerary says it was Caen peace museum). There was lots of stops and starts that morning and we would stand around for a while.
We were sat in the coach for about an hour I think, I kept dozing off and when I woke up it was light (How long was I asleep? O.o)
We had booklets around the museum with questions we had to answer. Which I hate.
It took away from being the museum and questions were always hard to find as everyone gathers at that point (I'm short and cannot see over people, which does not help).
And then there was a group of french students too, while we were under a glass floor they stared at our group and took pictures of some of us. I think the teachers reported them.
Again my itinerary says at 16:00 we check into our hotel and have free time at the port.
There were four of is in a room with 6 beds and no hot water in our room, and not many other of the girls room either (Cold showers are horrible!! )
