The Canada Memorial in London

With the 70th anniversary of D-Day and the Battle of Normandy this year, we wanted to share a photo from a poignant moment during one of our trips. Wherever and whenever we can, we set aside time to visit the Canadian war memorials located overseas. The Canada Memorial in London’s Green Park was erected in 1992. It is a tribute to the nearly 1,000,000 Canadians who served and the 110,000 who gave their lives in the First and Second World Wars. The face of the memorial is a cascade of falling maple leaves.
