I had a very unrealistic sense of distance when I was about 4 or 5. Our house was overlooking a small field, and at the other side you could see the roof of a white house. I was absolutely convinced that this was my grandfathers house, which was actually a five hour drive away... Hey, they were both big and white! I refused to believe the boy next door (seven years older, always knew best...) when he claimed this was impossible.
A childhood belief about places
