This week’s broadcast of Eye on Travel is from the legendary Seine, perhaps the most romantic river in the world. We’ll be on board the Viking longship Radgrid as it makes its way along the Seine into the heart of Normandy. As we approach the 80th anniversary of D-Day, I will be joined by Scott Desjardins, Superintendent of the American Cemetery in Normandy, on the stories not often told of D-Day, and the staggering emotional significance of the cemetery. Nearby, in Caen, Kleber Arhoul, Chief Operating Officer at the fascinating Memorial Museum, built on top of a former German bunker, explains why the museum is not just about World War II, but embraces the entire history of the 20th century. I stop along the river in Vernon, and Rouen, and talk about the impressionists who lived and painted there. Then, of course there’s Versailles, and Curator Bertrand Rondot talks about the impressive collection, not to mention the story of the building itself. And then it’s back to Paris, as Nicolas De Gols, General Manager of Le Royal Monceau – Raffles Paris, discusses the city — and a definition of luxury for the 21st century, and how Paris is preparing for this summer’s Olympic Games. There’s all this and more on this week’s Eye on Travel, as we sail the Seine on the Viking longship Radgrid.
