Nice, Brandon
I'm thinking of doing one of those as well. Overlong hair is kinda annoying.

I went to those places (and several others) on a school history trip to belgium/france 2 or 3 years ago. Some of the cemeteries are way impressive, if not a little creepy. Its quite thought provoking though, to be surrounded by so many of those little white headstones. There was also a very solemn German cemetary with a mass grave in the center of it, that (along with 3 others we went to) were hidden away in forests and had a really still and quiet feeling about it, pretty suitable I guess.

Indeed they are
Next month we're going back to Bruges and in September to London September 2010 we want to 'do' Western United States, the national parks etc.Quote:
Same thing at the Menin Gate in Ypres, many English folk attended the daily Last Post memorial ceremony there.And yes, the cemeteries we visited (Sanctuary Wood and Tyne Cot) were very peaceful indeed. |

Er, at risk of sounding like a complete tit, how do you pronounce that?

I thought an English person would pronouce it as I-pres or I-pers something.. Since I read the British soldiers called in Wipers during the war. So I'm not really sure, the Dutch/Flemish pronounciation (and spelling) is Ieper and that's pronounced e-per.You look a bit tired ![]() |

Well that's the French pronunciation and I speak French, to an extent. In English a lot of French words are pronounced the same way they are pronounced in French. Obviously there are exceptions but I have never known Ypres to be pronounced differently by someone whose first language is English. Then again, I don't hear most people talk about Ypres very often. Also in French words that have S at the end of the word, the S is silent a lot of the time.
