Liège

For Easter I decided to leave Brugge and Yannick so kindly invited me to his house to partake in the traditional Easter matzo. Liège is quite nice if you enjoy post-industrial cities but there are some really nice areas of town. During our driving tour of the greater Liège area Yann remembered that he lives quite close to the Ardennes American Cemetery.

As you can see it was a gorgeous day. I had never been to an American cemetery in Europe people and they are really interesting. You can see the monument in the background which serves as a memorial to all those who died.

Most of the 5,000 buried here died during the Battle of the Bulge. I was glad I got to visit it.

The rest of my visit to Liège was quite nice and I got to partake in real food and enjoy the very pleasant company of the Hartstein family.
