The Flower Market in Nice, France showcases delicate blooms that bring joy with their vibrant colors and sweet fragrances. Turning our attention to more somber times, imagine gunners clad in sheepskin coats during WW1 at Bazentin in France - brave souls who faced immense challenges on such petite shoulders.
