Snow!


I'm a little envious of people in Great Britain, and wish I could be there at the moment. We have more than enough snow ourselves, but up there it's always more magical and so much more special. Snow in Britain seems to liberate the child in everyone, here it just seems to give people a reason to be a little more grumpy and complain.
Apparently the coming weekend will bring even more snow to Austria and even for the capital meteorologists have predicted up to 40 cm of snow. Which would be rather amazing, because usually, snow doesn't really linger very long in the inner city area of Vienna. I'm curious how people will deal with such a load of snow, if usually half an inch is enough to make them cause severe traffic chaos. I, for my part, have already blown off all plans to go to the country over the weekend. Instead I'll stay put and watch the situation unfold. And I'll be there with a camera, in case anything is worth documenting. And should the snow really come, it also will be best not to rely on the tram to take me to Uni on Monday. Luckily I have two functioning feet and can just about deal with a 10 minute winder-wonder-walk.

Stay tuned for more snow-news. :)
