Omaha Beach, Normandy

Matt's weekend trip abroad! A few weekends ago, Matt visited his mother and her husband Mitchell who were visiting friends in Omaha Beach and did a bunch of sightseeing, including the towns of Saint-Laurent-sur-Mer and Bayeux, the Normandy American Cemetery, and the Cathedrale Notre-Dame de Bayeux.  Matt also made sure to get his fill of delicious crepes, cider, and sorbet!
