The only reason i say this is because, when I visited my Aunt in Brixen, There was an interior courtyard which I said was so nice and she told me it was a graveyard.

Courtyards, little enclosures, etc. Here in the US EVERYTHING has to be filled up with something. It feels as if there's no room to breathe or contemplate. I'm looking forward to my visit to the British Isles in September to see if I can "feel" a difference. :)<br /><br />Calen~<br />Impromptu Promptlings<br /><a href="https://promptlings.wordpress.com/2017/04/30/happy-trails-to-you/" rel="nofollow">A to Z Challenge Happy Trails To You!</a><br />Calensarielhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06316498514995616153noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2147049442316958074.post-34601388252378171882017-05-01T10:33:00.285-04:002017-05-01T10:33:00.285-04:00Such a beautiful place, it's been years since ...Such a beautiful place, it's been years since we've been to Holland and Belgium.Mac n' Janethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05732924562630675589noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2147049442316958074.post-54722985139940056612017-05-01T10:12:13.931-04:002017-05-01T10:12:13.931-04:00There are a lot of houses in Amsterdam that look l...There are a lot of houses in Amsterdam that look like they are falling over.
