Beautiful hazard

For 40 kilometers around our city, the streets and motorways are gridlocked because of the snow and subsequent accidents, due to the electricity failures the trains aren't running correctly, trees are creaking and breaking under the weight of the snow, and there are funny noises coming from my roof and the windows.

But this white wet hazard has its beauty as well. Here are two pictures I took a few minutes ago standing outside our patio door, looking into the garden and freezing my nose off.







How on earth I am going to be at the people's university tomorrow morning at nine to teach the HTML class I don't know.

So, so beautiful. God, I miss snow. Can I come visit you for a weekend and go to the Weinachtmarkt and drink glühwein and be snowed on? And then I'll go home.

Of course you can come to visit! For more than a weekend, too.
Still, I was on the Weihnachtsmarkt today, drank glühwein and got snowed on - and boy am I glad to be at home in the warmth!

Yes, and that's part of the joy of snow as well: one is so very glad to get out of it!

And not a single flake to be seen this far north.

Which is astounding. And we're snowed under. But I guess later in the winder it will be the other way around, and I'll envy you. :)

Snow in Italy? Northern Italy, I presume, because somehow I can't see the southern part snowed under... In any case, drive carefully!

I am in Milano, yes, but these days they have snow even in Calabria...!
I will drive carefully, I have the three cats on board and I'd never dream of putting their lives in danger ;-)

Be glad, no snow = no chaos on the roads. Even if snow is cool.
