Dawn breaks over the Thiepval Ridge

Another good week's weather on the Western Front, with the blue skies and bucolic calm making it difficult to conceive of this place as the setting for a tragedy of epic proportions.
My guests this week stayed in Ypres for one night, having followed the story of their great uncle to Passchendaele, and to the Menin Gate memorial. Nights two and three were on the Somme. Hoping they can all answer the usual question - why pay more for a "bespoke" or "customised" trip.
