Well, I never thought I'd see it here, cause people tell me it's so awful in the winter and there's never any snow. On friday, we had our first snowfall of the year! Ok, it was actually like pellets...not flakes. But alas, it fell. At Dave's work, kids ran around at recess with arms raised towards the sky yelling, "I LOVE SNOWWWWW!". Of course, many of these children are from places like India, South Africa, where snow is far more rare than here in Denmark. It was their first time seeing it.
On Sunday, we went for a walk to Valbyparken.
Here's a picture of the pond frozen over. And here's a picture of David tempting fate: "Will the ice break?"
It was quite funny to see all the children with sleds walking up and sledding down the mucky hills (we had had not even an inch of snow yet!). But they were so happy to see the snow. It did, as it always does, make the city a little brighter and cleaner. We had snow for the whole weekend.
I can't fully express how glad I was to see the white stuff falling. It makes coldness cozy and bearable. Argue with me if you like, but my opinion won't change. Of course, I don't have to ride a bike in it!
