As a child I read and loved all the classic fairytales and the wonderful illustrations of forests and castles. It was with great wonder as an adult that I came to Europe and visited the places which inspired their authors and illustrators. I never tire of finding the source of books, poetry and art.
I enjoyed reading this post which is a fine tribute to Cinderella's castle Neuschwanstein by Grace at Domythic Bliss. This castle and it's King have a real story all their own played out to a Wagner soundtrack. Have a look and be inspired.

ReplyDeleteSee you soon Anita! x
DeleteWhat a beautiful photograph. The light and colours make it look so magical.
ReplyDeleteThank you, sadly I cannot claim it as mine, it is from a travel brochure I have had for a long time and the photographer is not credited. I love the colours.
DeleteLovely post. I love castles and I love Wagner!
ReplyDeleteThank you for your sweet comment on my blog today.

Thank you for stopping by Annie. x
DeleteP.S. I have black cat too, also feral, named Zoe.
ReplyDeletePS as well, ha ha! Zoe is a wonderful name, so pretty. It is unusual to live with a feral, they have much to teach us and much to give. I hope yours is well & happy. x
DeleteI'm off to click on that link. Many years ago, on a rainy day in April, I visited Neuschwanstein and had a private tour with a group of about 10 women. It was a wonderful day and an incredible memory, yet. There is something about the castle that appeals to the little girl in so many of us.
ReplyDeleteA private visit! How wonderful - you are soooo lucky! x
DeleteI had no idea there was a real Cinderella castle...how lovely! I am going to read all about it...
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for your comment, hope you are having a brilliant fairytale weekend,

Yes, this castle wasd the inspiration for Disney for the Cinderella castle in the film.
DeleteI love castles, especially Scandinavian style castles, which tend to have very rounded architecture reminiscent of fairytale palaces. Great post!
