today was pretty life changing. honestly. first, we went to a memorial museum which is in rememberance of d-day on june 6th, 1944. it was so moving. really enjoyed that. we had a good 2 hours in there. after that, we went to omaha beach, where d-day took place. the mayor welcomed us and then held a flag raising ceremony. damn, that was so cool. 8 flags. for all 8 nations that were apart of the attack on normandy. it really was the best part of the day. first part of today's picture is one of the monuments on the beach. remembering the people who fought and died that day. oh man. that whole ceremony was so nice. we also met and talked to a survivior of world world 2. she only spoke french, so there was a translator. that was so awesome. after that, we went to the memorial museum at omaha beach. it had cars, weapons, uniforms, that kinda stuff. pretty cool, actually. we chilled in there a watched a movie for a while. fun times. i hate nick for messing with me! oh well. after that museum, we went to the normandy american cemetary. 9,387 graves. holy shit. that's the second picture for today. the only double picture of the trip, because i really saw so many great things today. after all that, we drove to the docking place where we would board our overnight ferry to england. we had dinner in a restaurant walking distance from there. after dinner, we had about 2 hours of free time. we could walk around wherever. at first, i was with steph, sam, nicole, kaleen, kate, etc. there was a fair nearby and we started dancing around and whatnot. eventually, greg, jon, alexa, destiny and nick came over and we all went on the bumper cars. sooo much fun hahaha. haven't laughed like that in a while. i was with the usual after that. after a while, stefane and tati walked out there and told me the leaders needed my passport. i had to walk allllll the way back to the dock to get my passport out of my carry on. i walked back to the fair and ze amigos were already going back to be on time. so yeahhhh. we waited for a while at the docking place and it was actually really funny. good times with 5amigos. i couldn't get by without sharing this picture; http://i26.tinypic.com/2rr29g9.jpg oh hell yeaaaah. okay so anyway. we start boarding around 10:30pm. we took a bus to the ship real quick and then got on. no free time, damn. well, we couldn't bring our big luggage to our rooms, so we had to sit in the lobby of the boat and take all the stuff we needed for the night and tomorrow and put it in our carry on.... fun. it sucked. then we went to our rooms. 4 people to a barely exsistant room. seriously, it was a box. no windows or anything. folding bunk beds? what? yeah, it sucked. oh and. wake up call = 5:30am! oh fun! another thing, 3 of us wanted to shower..... this should be fun.
