We've got SNOW
Yesterday afternoon it was very cold and it started raining; Rob and Olivier were both soaked when they arrived home. Around eight-thirty, Rob suggested our usual evening stroll around the block so I sent him to check it wasn’t raining. It was snowing!!! We went for our walk around the block though a shorter route than usual and yes we got soaked.

This morning there was a lot of snow on the ground and it had frozen over. Rob went to work on the bus instead of his bike and Olivier went off to lycĂ©e praying the buses were cancelled (not logical as Rob had already taken an earlier bus). Apparently the traffic is moving very slowly. I haven’t even gone out to collect the post, it probably won’t have arrived yet.

As the sun started to rise , it was really beautiful. The frozen snow on the branches of the trees sparkled in the pinky, yellowish light. It won’t last for long I’m sure, but at least we’ve had a little bit.
