It is only with the heart that one can see clearly, for the most essential things are invisible to the eye.”
― Hans Christian Andersen, The Ugly Duckling

Now, why did I choose a quote from The Ugly Duckling instead of The Wild Swans?  Mainly because there wasn’t a quote to be found from the Hans Christian Anderson fairytale that I love so much.  Not one that coordinated with the above photo anyway.

I continue to read my beloved fairytales to my grandchildren.  Many would say they don’t translate well in these modern times.  Actually, I dare to disagree.  I learned patience, perseverance, and that sometimes silence is golden from reading The Wild Swans, and these are qualities I want to pass to my grandchildren, modern society be hanged.

I always dreamed that Disney would make a movie of my favorite fairytale one day.  I no longer want that as they would just change the storyline so much that it would be unrecognizable, and I am a Disney fan.  If you care to read my favorite fairytale, you can find it here.  I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I have over the years.  Be kind to one another.  TWMA♥

She liked the moon because, like herself, it shined its brightest when no one was around to see. ~Authour Unknown

Photographed at ~ Du Petit Lac Des Cygnes

As the storyline goes, Du Petit Lac Des Cygnes is located in the Southwest area of France at the foot of the Pyrenees mountain range.  Having lived on regions surrounded by water, this is an ongoing learning experience for me.  It’s tested my terraforming abilities to be sure.  The actual lake for which the build is named takes up over 1/4 of the region.  The Chateau and the grounds surrounding it takes up almost 1/2 with the farmhouse turned cafe/winery along with the vineyard and orchard comprising the remaining area.  Landscaping as always takes up much of the land impact in my builds.  In the above photograph, I am standing near one of two walls of fountains that enclose the pool area.  It’s still a work in progress for the most part, and so over the top but I love it! Maybe I’ll have this place open before the year is out lol.  Be kind to one another.  TWMA♥
