Real-Life Villages That Look Like Fairy Tales

Just as I was wondering what to post for today’s Bytes I received an email from Leo sending pics of wonderful little villages and streets that look like they have sprung from fairy tales and postcards.

At a time when there is so much sadness and ugliness in the world, it is refreshing to take a moment out and do the pictorial equivalent of smelling the flowers . . .
