Today's destination: Hobbiton!
For two hours we will feel like hobbits in the Shire. Particularly impressive facts about the shooting of the Hobbit trilogy and The Lord of the Rings movies:
* The local sheep are not very happy with the director; they had to leave the land and make way for over 1000 sheep flown in from the South Island
* For 3 days, the leaves of an artificial tree had to be individually recolored as they did not quite meet the director's expectations (ps: the tree is shown for a total of 8 seconds in the film)
* In one scene, a sunset is shown. Since the location is oriented towards the east, the sunrise was filmed and played backwards. Because now even passing birds flew backwards, they had to be retouched.
Our souvenir and bad weather program for the rest of the holidays: the English edition of the books...
