So that you have a way back, Lori!!
Lori, beyond the tunnels a deep valley with a river opens out and there is a very old village up there and Alpine meadows that used to be cut off completely in the winter, above that Lake Salanfe.......
Can I start a new puzzle?This is also a puzzle for me and I don't have the answer. The Greatorex doubles were named, almost completely, after characters from the writings of William Shakespeare. However, there is one Greatorex double named, "White Swan", certainly not one of the well-known Shakespearean characters.Can anybody shed any light on this name?I know there is an hotel in Stratford-on-Avon called "The White Swan" and it occupies a building which was extant during Shakespeare's lifetime though, apparently, used as a bakery at that time.PaddyPerhaps, students of literature might be able to shed light on this choice of name by Mr. Greatorex.
