Oradour-Sur-Glane - Wednesday 9 - Saturday 12 May

Last update we were in Bellac in Central France enjoying our last few days in Elizabeth and Phil's bewdiful house where we slowed down a bit to recover from colds we caught in the chilly parts of the UK. The sunshine, food, wine and relaxed lifestyle certainly did the trick and we got better quickly:). We drove to Oradour sur Glane the village where over 600 men, women and children were massacred and the village burnt by the Waffen SS  in 1944. The burnt out remains of the whole village are preserved  with a historical museum alongside as a reminder of the horrors of the war and a new town has been built next door. 
We head back to Paris shortly. Hope all is well.
Love Al and Lyn x
