smallhobbitBook Leger holiday for 2026
Daughter and I had been trying to decide on which Battlefields Tour we would do next year. There was one destination we were looking at, but neither tour quite fitted the bill properly, so I suggested instead of making that one work, she might like to look at something different. Normally she's been really clear on what she's selected, so the fact that we weren't certain had made me wonder.
Anyway, yesterday she messaged me, and we had a chat, with the result that this morning I booked our tour for next April. For anyone who knows their classic WWII films, this fits perfectly, as we're off to Germany, scene of The Dambusters, Colditz and the Great Escape. It should be very interesting, not because we're relishing triumphant films, but in looking at the history and what made people behave as they did, something which doesn't change. Among other places, we shall be visiting Dresden, Berlin and Hannover, which will be really interesting.
