powerdesal Posted December 31, 2007 Author Share Posted December 31, 2007 [quote user="max123"]The photo of the "LOST TOWN" posted by Powerdesal and the photo posted by Brianagain are identical but taken at a slighty different angle. Max[/quote]Max you are wrong.I was most definitely staying in Normandy when I took the photo on a drive around the area. As I was staying in Villedieu Les Poeles it would have been a serious epic drive to get to Alsace and back during a normal day. Possibly Brianagain is mistaken but.....I imagine he knows where he was when he took his photo.ergo....You are wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right down to cabling between buildings, TV aerials, shop signs, window bars etc.Try it, it is 100% definitely the same place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mimi Posted December 31, 2007 Share Posted December 31, 2007 HiI am intrigued by this thread. I agree with Max and Lisleoise, it is certainly Kayserberg. If you look at Google images there are lots of photos showing the town and the same view. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveG Posted December 31, 2007 Share Posted December 31, 2007 They certainly look the same....[IMG]http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g130/dago49/rib.jpg[/IMG] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powerdesal Posted December 31, 2007 Author Share Posted December 31, 2007 Having spent the last couple of hours trawling through the google images of Kayserberg and having multiple screens for comparison, I cant argue with the results. Its definitely Kayserberg. All I need to do is figure out how the hell I got a photo of Kayserberg in August 2003.[8-)] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Russethouse Posted December 31, 2007 Share Posted December 31, 2007 If you sent the film off somewhere to be developed (rather than digital) perhaps the pic was included with yours in error ??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnOther Posted December 31, 2007 Share Posted December 31, 2007 Don't wish to be pedantic but is it not KaysersbergKayserberg is in Suriname and you likely WOULD have some explaing to do [:-))] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cendrillon Posted December 31, 2007 Share Posted December 31, 2007 Looking at the two photos I agree that they look to be the same place. I also noticed the street signs, there are two of them so this suggests to me that the street is signed in both French and German. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kitty Posted January 1, 2008 Share Posted January 1, 2008 I'm a jigsaw fanantic and this is the picture on one of my jigsaws that I did recently. The problem is that I am away from home at the moment. When I get back (next Monday), I'll be able to identify it because presumably the location will be written on the side of the jigsaw.

brianagain Posted January 2, 2008 Share Posted January 2, 2008 ErnieY; I did realise I had misspelled Kaysersberg (Ger; Kaisersberg) early on but at least you failed to pick up my original misspelling of Ribeauvillé. (so there!)Powerdesal; Kaysersberg does have a pay car park at the bottom end of the town (surrounded by low evergreen hedging, outside what may have been the original town wall). Approaching from Colmar the road skirts Kientzheim, a lovely little walled wine village.Many of the street signs in the area are indeed in French and Alsacien. With my London accented French the locals assume that anyone speaking French with a 'foreign' accent is German so often a request will elicit a rely in German; can be confusing!Bonne annéeBrian (again)[:D] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
