Another day of exciting things to remember. Good thing I am keeping a diary of sorts. Today was ever so busy touring around all the Battlefields in the Somme Valley. Wayne located a great Uncle and I was able to walk around the area where a great Uncle won a Military Medal. Found a gravesite of a relative of Waynes who had recently been visited by Sue Smith, President of the Legislative Council in Tassie..unbeknowns to Wayne she must be a relative of his......Felt a little homesick when we met a guy wearing a Bay of Fires T Shirt..had recently spent 3 months in Tassie......The whole tour today was overwhelming....Once again weather rather pleasant..Another big day tomorrow when we head towards Belgium....once again touring the Battlefields..Wayne is becoming accustomed to driving on the wrong side of the road. Hope he is okay when we get home.....take care all....
