    I enjoy your vlogs a lot. This old village was enchanting. Strange how quiet it was. Loved the music, the church, and all the stone structures. Well done!

      I feel same way. My maternal grandfather's people were from France. His parents moved to St. Catherines Canada, and my grandfather came down to NY USA when very young. He met and married my grandmother , met her in Trenton, NJ. I still live in this area of NJ to this day but would LOVE to visit France, England (my dad's people from Kent England came to USA in the 1600s. So much rich history and roots for many of us here in the states are from France and Europe. Thank you so much Selmar from NJ, I truly appreciate ALL of your videos.

    Good morning Selmar 🙏 what a beautiful village. It would have been lovely to see what was inside the antique shop with the beautiful picture in the window. Love the splashes of flowers outside the shops and homes. We don’t have beautiful old villages like Europe in the USA.
    I believe it was difficult as you stated walking up and down those streets for shopping etc. but people were in such healthy physical shape.
    Such a lovely old church, imagine how long it took to build these magnificent structures centuries ago and they stand the test of time. Stained glass extraordinary.
    Thank you Selmar for another wonderful vlog. Safe travels.❤️🙏✨💐🇺🇸

    Meet me at the sign of the cross,
    Where beams of wood bend to sky,
    In corners of stone ,
    Where love lies hidden,
    Reflections of light touch the heart,
    Kneel in reverence,
    To ages glory,
    Remember me in song and story....
    Lady Lynda
    Thank you Selmar for sharing this ancient town and the wonders contained within...

    Such a beautiful village. Loved the statues and beautiful windows in the chapel. Selmar, have you ever been to the walled city of Carcassone, France? It might be too far from LaLande but it is so neat. My husband and I visited there a few years ago. Has a castle, chapel, shops and restaurants. There is a board game with the same name that we discovered recently.

    • @blueberrypieology3088
      @blueberrypieology3088 3 года назад

      There are thousands of villages like this in France., some more charming than others. You are asking something quite hard actually. Unless there has been a battle nearby or one of the inhabitants turned into somebody famous at some point, a town just has some local history. Not every village is known for their history, nationally or even internationally. Remember, this isn’t even Selmar’s home country.

      @@equatorialjourney4478 : It's the summer. That's when many French people go on vacation for weeks at a time. Also, due to Covid, you won't see many tourists. Although Selmar did see a Dutch family walking past him.
