This story is a beautiful reminder of the power of travel. #ExpediaCruises #AirLandSeaVacations
I have the privilege of constantly traveling, for work and vacation… but some trips really stand out. Last week was an extraordinary one for me, as I took my parents on a river cruise, from Paris into Normandy. Nearly eighty years ago, my grandfather was an American soldier wounded just after D-Day. So it was really special for us to visit Omaha Beach and the American cemetery. My dad, also a veteran, honored my grandfather and all the brave soldiers of WW2. It was incredibly moving and an experience my family will always treasure. This emotional week was an intense reminder of the power of travel. I’m so thankful to work in this industry. Also, the ease of our travel experience allowed us to focus on what was most important. Thank you to AmaWaterways River Cruises (booked through a great travel advisor of Expedia Cruises), for the inspiring itinerary, incredible onboard experience, and memories of a lifetime.
