September 17

Day 6, Tuesday

September 17

After breakfast at our hotel and a bit of time in the morning for some final shopping and sight-seeing in Bruges, we’ll load our bags into the vans, and strike east for Eindhoven.

Upon arrival into this key objective city for the 101st Airborne during Operation Market Garden, we'll drop bags at our hotel and allow everyone a quick break to freshen up/unpack.

We'll then head off to explore the landing sites and paths of advance by the 506th into the city. Sites such as the Son Drop Zone, the Bridge over the Wilhelmina Canal, St. Catherine’s Church, the Dommel River Bridges, and the railroad tracks where Easy advanced through the city, are all prominent landmarks for Easy and the 506th.

With a very full day and night ahead of us, we’ll finish up relatively early so that everyone can enjoy the vibrant nightlife of Eindhoven, with its many options for dinner and drinks. Our hotel is in a prime location for all to take advantage.

OVERNIGHT: EINDHOVEN
