Snow-white!

Barely one day at Asker, a small suburb of Oslo, and I experienced my first snow fall! Well, it was also the first heavy snowfall of the season, and the countryside that was earlier dry and colourful, suddenly turned white all over!!

A day later, with the sun out again, and the sky a bright blue, the landscape is ravishingly beautiful. Too bad I'm stuck in classes for eight hours a day (which is pretty much all the hours of daylight). Oh, but it's so much fun watching snow slipping softly off the tree leaves!

  2. Aah! My most regular guest is back :) Nope, no snowman. It's stopped snowing, and the snow's beginning to melt away. Have to wait for fresh snowfall I guess.
