Guernsey Liberation Day

  At the end of World War ll, on May 9th, 1945, the German occupation of the island was ended.  They have a huge Liberation Day celebration every year.  I got a few pictures in between downpours  of rain.                           Main port street with people, food and souvenir booths.

Vintage cars, and jeeps were parked for viewing after the motor cavalcade.



Car owners dressed in the style of the day.


Fun pedaling for the youngsters.

Stilt Walkers 

French market, food booths, entertainment - lots to see and do for everyone.
There were fireworks at night to end the celebration.
