Alright....still in the Market Garden area.

The Uruquart House as made famous by the movie A Bridge Too Far. And the Hartenstein Hotel, now a museum dedicated to the British 1st Airborne.

Yet again...almost but not quite....

We did a shotgun tour of everything south of Arnhem in one day and as such really saw very little. Here are some of the highlights. Some shots from Nimegen Bridge...I was told that this is the original bridge from 1944. However, in the near future a new bridge will be built alongside this one to accomodate the increase in traffic. you can't stop progress I guess.

Another 'almost' then and now shot.

An old German bunker on the North side of the Bridge.
