    If ye break faith with us who die
    We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
    In Flanders fields.


    Glad you made the trip with the kids.

    I'd say that that was a very successful field trip! Any time someone's awareness can be raised about what war is, and what war does, particualrly by being at the scene of the actual battles, it's all to the good. Thank you for providing that insight for your students.

    I was at Tyne Cot Cemetery, just a few months ago, it was a beautiful, but very cold day, and very peaceful and great light, the white Portland stone stones showed up very well, I took a few pictures, it was a very moving day
