MY CHILDHOOD PLAYGROUND -BLAISE

CASTLE-

When I was a child, everything seemed so big. The streets seemed wider

and the trees In the forest around Blaise Castle seemed so large and daunting.

The bridge over the stream that ran through the forest. The stream was reported to have been the bath of the giant “Goram” that was supposed to have inhabited the forest centuries ago
