I never took a picture of this but it was so funny, the story, I don't know why I didn't take a photo.(Sometimes I don't want to look too "touristy") But anyway there was a brick house, a yellow house, a gray house, and a pink house all lined up together identical. The story is that a man had three daughters who were so ugly they never got married and bugged him very much. So he built each one a house: gray for the brunette, yellow for the blond, and pink for the redhead. Each of the houses carries a feature which describes some of the poor girls ill-fated facial features. The brunette had bushy brows so over the windows were huge awenings. The red head had a big nose so there is a veranda in the middle of the house out front, and the blond had a mustache so there is a raught iron bar that extends over the front of the house. Now I don't know how a blond can have a mustache, and I might have mixed them up, but you get the picture. Very amusing!
