Splendid! Love this. It speaks of antiquity, but the laundry colors are pure modernism! Great photo! v/f

Very interesting and picturesque place, Lainie, Im just wondering how they can live this way on the rocks....
Lainie Wrightson replied:
Hi Jenny, I must say it seems a bit precarious but they manage ... and like many of the ancient villages in France they have lots of steps:)

Lainie, I've never been there, but Rocamadour it's not so far from Lyon... now that I saw your beautiful picture I really want to visit those places. :)

Mona, this place is well worth the effort to see. It is not only lovely and spiritual but steeped in history:)

Odd Jeppesen
Beautiful. I like the way the green softens what seems like a very rugged location.
Lainie Wrightson replied:
Hello Odd, thanks so much for your comment. The buildings are built literally into the mountain so it is indeed a rugged location.
Mona Edulescu

These look medieval, and the laundry reminds us that people still live there! Wonderful, Lainie!

Pat, even when you feel like you've stepped back in time ... there's always a reality check:)
