 Monumento de Navarin.  Located in the center of the former Champagne front which extended from Reims to Argonne, the monument commemorates the battles from September 1914 to October 1918.It was erected in 1924 to honor the deaths of the Armies of Champagne at the initiative of General Gouraud, commanding the IVth Army.Inside, the bones of 10,000 soldiers, most of them anonymous, rest in a burial crypt.By climbing a few steps we reach the foot of the base from where we discover a vast panorama of the former Champagne front. The terrain still bears the marks of combat: trenches, craters, trenches... At the top, a sculpture represents 3 patrolmen in the guise of General Gouraud, Lieutenant Quentin Roosevelt, son of the President, killed in 1918 in the Tardenois and the sculptor's own brother who fell at Chemin des Dames.

Let's Move and Motivate part 2

LET'S MOVE AND MOTIVATE part 2     We have to keep moving for a healthy lifestyle, whether it be through dancing, martial arts, walking, yoga, swimming, hiking, gardening, we just have to keep moving. While a little rest and relaxation is fine, living a completely sedentary life can be dangerous for our health. Hence the reason increasing our physical activity at any age can help lower your risk factors for serious health conditions.  Our metabolisms naturally slow over time, therefore, moving/exercise increases our metabolic rate, otherwise known as your metabolism.  Let's stay active, LET'S MOVE to maintain a healthy lifestyle and metabolism at any age. I love dancing, martial arts, cooking and gardening. What do you enjoy doing to stay active?  You do not have to be a dancer to dance. Put on your favourite music and LET'S MOVE AND MOTIVATE. See you in the active world soon! YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCCMs8qwhjqlwe31slcgIXKg Facebook: https://...
