I recently learned there was an inland encampment known as Maisy Battery that played an integral part in the invasion, and it has only recently begun excavation.  If you go to the beaches, you should probably check out the other at the same time.

I haven't been to Europe at all, but seeing that it is a bucket list item for you both I wanted to make sure you were aware of it's existence...
