Lori and I had our poppies with us and we received quite a few positive comments about them. They are not worn in France but some think they should.
Personally, I think everyone should.

Armistice Day
Yesterday was Remembrance Day in Canada but in France it's called Armistice Day. It's a national holiday to mark the armistice of 1918. There was a wreath laying ceremony at the tomb of the unknown soldier underneath the Arc de Triomphe, similar to the ceremony in Ottawa. They were just tearing down everything when I took this photo.
