Spring …. Snow ??!!
Wrong, wrong, WRONG !!!! My last post was about spring and how nice it was gonna be. Let me tell you, it was a very nice and warm week with 20°C, running around in T-shirt and shorts. But then we woke up this morning and guess what:
Yip, it snowed again…. But I hope it will change as quickly again to last week’s climate.
Another Surprise
We had another dump of snow overnight. And by the looks of it, there was no wind when it came down. It just looks so beautiful. And I wonder how much longer this will last ? Don’t get me wrong, I love this kind of weather, and if it is up to me we will have this for another month or 2.
Taken this morning when I left daycare in our old hood.
White Lane
Yesterday afternoon … our old street … when we went to daycare where they had a play evening with the parents.
Good fun to sit with your kids and see what they do there. It was a bit crazy with so many people in there. Especially when some parents come over with the whole family.
That’s how it’s supposed to be
We got another dump of snow last night. About 10 to 15 cm. I just love it !!!
And I thought 11 years ago when I moved to Sweden that this would be a typical Swedish winter. But that turned out to be a huge disappointment. A typical winter in Gothenburg is just windy, a lot of rain and temperatures just above freezing. Meaning horrible!
I hope that this year will be a trend setter. And we cross our fingers that it will still be white in 2 weeks time.
Seeing the Forest Through the Trees
We had snow again this weekend, so we prentended is was Xmas…
In case you are wondering where this was taken, just at the back of our garden. We have a bit of forest there.
Rooftops
Just when you think it stopped snowing and it will all turn into grey water soon, we get another load of white fluffiness dumped on our head. Not that I complain. It seems like it’s gonna be a never-ending story this winter.
This one is from this morning when I was in the office looking out. We got moved a few floors up, so wee enjoy a better view from this part of town. And when I took this, it was like somebody was shaking out their pillows. Nice thick white snowflakes, could have been better if you ask me. The only bad thing about this all is that I have to be inside and am not allowed to go outside and play like a kid … Maybe another time.
Finally
It finally arrived. Who knows, maybe it will last a few days and we will have a white Christmas. Something that hasn’t happened since I was a kid, I think…
And besides that, it’s my first day off from work. Another “finally”. I have been longing for this one. Too many long days without the family. And that is never a good thing. So now I have at least 3 weeks to spend some quality time together !!!
