Hubby made it home from his 4 day whizz down to Belgium on his motorbike after a sailing job cancellation. He went to Waterloo and explored the historical battle fields, farms and villages that were all part of the story of that most famous of battles between Wellington and Napoleon and their forces. He is an avid military historian so he was delighted to have the chance to do something he had wanted to do for a long time.
His photos, my collage.
Very nice collage of lovely pictures. A week ago I finished reading a book which I have had for many years in my library, titled 'Year (or time) of the Sword' which was the detailed biography of Lord Wellington and, of course, the battle at Waterloo. It was an interesting read but the thousands and thousands of men who lost their lives in the conflicts was horrible.
How wonderful to fulfil a long awaited dream. A great triptych of his trip and I expect he is planning the next adventure for when the opportunity arrives.
ā¦. Also well done you for āletting himā!š
