Saturday we went over to France and the little village of Bitche … and yup that's the way it is pronounced in French. In spite of that it is host to an awesome citadel that looms above the city and was instrumental in the Franco-Prussian battles around 1870. For Richard and Kerry we ate in the same little restaurant we ate in some 8 years ago or so. After eating we did the audio and film tour of the catacombs in the citadel and it was as awesome and chilling as ever. The tiny chapel was built in 1678 on a site that has had a chapel since the 1100s.
