I was just going through some photos from a holiday in Belgium, we went over for the weekend last Easter.
Anyway, we went to Ypres, and in the surrounding area there are alot of war memorials from the first world war. Pretty striking stuff when you think about it.
First pic is of the largest we went to, headstones as far as you could see.
Second is a picture of one of the many walls of the Menen gate, every wall is covered in the names of soldiers who died in the war.
We did also take the time to sample many of the beers that are on offer, I can assure you they are excellent, and very strong!
