Stanley Park in Vancouver is one of the most beautiful urban areas in Canada.
With 500,000 trees, it is larger than Central Park in New York.
Inhabited by humans for thousands of years, it has a deep history.
This is the story of that park.

I always used to say that in the whole course of my PhD and after, I never came across a single set of medieval "classic" sedilia in what is now France.

Then last week I found out about the church of Tour-en-Bessin near Bayeux.

The sedilia are LEAST astonishing thing about it tbh. It's CRAZY!

The crew made it to land and installed an automatic weather station to aid in the planning of attacks on Allied ships.
It remained there for the next three decades.
This is the story.

Let's learn about this unique region :)
