A couple of days ago I was flicking through this local tourist guide. We are right on the edge of Suisse Normande and Falaise is our favourite local castle so I thought there might be some other things to see or do locally.
There were a few possibilities and then as I turned the page my eye was drawn to the photo below. It was only small but I really had to do a double take and it looked so like here at Eco-Gites of Lenault. For anyone who has been here maybe you will see how closely this resembles the view from the play-barn, across the boules pitch to the old house/pig pin. I even had to go out to check that it really had not been taken here!
So anyway I decided I might like to try and recreate the photo. It wasn't my best re-creation as I was a bit rushed. The two younger children in the photo were our gite guests at the time and were just about to head out for the day (and we were lacking a fifth child!). But I think you will see the similarity between the two photos.
Now I really want to know where the other photo was taken! Is there really somewhere else just like Eco-Gites of Lenault out there?!
This is my blog, A Green and Rosie Life, which is all about helping you live life that bit greener without having to build an off-grid log cabin in the woods or knit your own nettle fibre undies! It's about helping you make simple changes that together will make a big difference to our beautiful world and make it a better place for our children.
Maybe someone snuck in when you were all away in Paris a few months ago and took the photo? There surely isn't another place like yours Rosie.
ReplyDeleteLOL - thank you Phoebe!
DeleteGreat photo! Great similarity too :-) #PoCoLo
ReplyDeleteI was convinced for a while that it had been taken here!
DeleteGreat photo! Maybe you can ask the publishers where the photo was taken? Might be fun to see if there are other similarities? :p
ReplyDeleteThat's a very good idea, Charlotte :)
