I was asking myself, why the street was so quiet this morning, Now I understand better, it's 11 Nov and is still a hollyday here in Belgium

Belgium is the only place where every day is for remembering - 8pm at the Menin Gate is an experience not quickly forgotten. Perhaps the most meaningful event I have ever attended; certainly, I can think of none that outshine it for depth of meaning.

Yes, I totally agree with your comments.

Ypres was THE MOST moving remembrance event that I have ever been to and I have been there twice.

Lest We Forget.
