La Cambe, Normandy, France
Next on our Normandy trip, we visited La Cambe cemetery. Over 21,000 German military personnel from WWII are buried here. This is a staggering figure when you compare it to the approximately 9,000 Americans buried in Colleville-sur-Mer! Originally, the cemetery had American and German soldiers buried here, but they eventually exhumed the Americans and moved them leaving only the Germans in this location. It is a beautiful and moving place to visit.

Farges, France
We went on a photo drive after going to the Market in Thoiry. We ended up in Farges where we saw a cute little church and visited the cemetery.

Prague XLIII: Old Jewish Cemetery
We visited the Old Jewish Cemetery after our tour. Apparently it is not allowed to destroy graves or remove tombstones, so when space ran out, they would add dirt to make another layer and the tombstones would be taken out and added to the new layer, thus making them get all bunched together.
Ghosts in the cemetery.
