Europe Blitz Spring Break 2024

This was a huge trip with 92 people, two buses, and a few headaches, but in the end we had a marvelous time.  

London











































Tower of London tour (this is a must see)










France (Normandy Beaches and then Paris)







Mont Saint Michel

This little village had a WWII plane go down in it.  The plane was named the Star Valley, after a gunner who was from SV being killed in training before even going to Europe.  This little French village has remembered it all these years. 

The woman above was 6 years-old when the plane went down and remembers the day.

The man next to me was the historian who did a lot of the research on the plane and the crew.

Some of us got stuck in Amsterdam overnight!
I ran into this woman when I was trying to catch the correct metro.  She helped me and even took me on a little tour!
