A postman's quirky palace, near Cluny

Europe 2024 (NL / IT / FR)

We left our B&B, detouring on our way to Paris, to check out this “palace” suggested by our hosts. What a quirky place. Built by a postman, over several decades, with no particular artistic or engineering skills. It’s kind of like a large sandcastle sculpture.

Along the way, we snapped a photo next to a wind turbine. Notice how the crops are planted right up to the edge of it. A great way to keep agricultural land and still generate power.

Charging

A destination charger in the car park, which was handy because this route doesn’t have many options, unlike the suggested route to Paris, on the navigation.

    1. Linda M R-b Thank you ☺️. I saw DVDs at the gift store there, and hoped to find it streaming somewhere.

      2. We watched it tonight. A bit slow and sad, but also charming and amazing.
