Beaucoup de neige...26 December 2008

Well what an exciting start to our day….snow falling outside softly, quietly….divine!

When we woke up at 7.30am it looked like frost on the top of the car but then looking up into the sky through the light you could see the little white flakes falling to the ground. Beautiful! It’s the first time I’ve seen snow actually falling and it turns everything white and gorgeous.

So it’s 9 am now and it’s been snowing for a couple of hours. Our car is completely covered in snow. It looks like a snow mobile. People outside are going about their business as usual carrying umbrellas to keep the snow off their heads.

On Christmas afternoon, about 5 pm we went for a walk to get out of the house and it was freezing, freezing, freezing. We thought there would be a big chance of snow today. In fact, on the Meteo the whole of the south of France has snow flakes pictured on it.
