I was vastly surprised to find myself surrounded by Napoleontic troups. However, it was true. I managed to snap some pictures.
Even the Grande Armée drinks from plastic waterbottles.
The allies! They will try to stop the French from invading.
They have cannons! (Gosh darn this was very loud.)
The English
The Scots
The allies decided to do an ‘orderly retreat’ and ran away very fast.
The French, a little worn out, march into the village.
Oh my gosh!!! That is AMAZING! Where was this??? I am so envious…. And I’m glad you survived the fight. :)
It was in a very small village in the north of the Netherlands, but the reenactors were mostly French and German, and had travelled here to reenact the fight. It was pretty great :)
Unbelievable…!!!!! Again: I am COMPLETELY envious….. Thanks so much for posting all of those pictures! I love it! :)
