Holland

Amsterdam is wonderful. Hoor was historic and old. A great stop. Today we're in Arnhem and toured a battle field area of the Battle of Arnhen, Sept 17, 1944. The cemetary was thought provoking. We had watched the movie A Bridge Too Far last night and understood the event. Those soldiers gave so much to achieve so little, and yet are honored every year by a greatful Dutch people. My thought for the day: soldiers will do whatever it takes to carry out what they are sent to do. Be careful what you chose as their mission. The cost is high.
