Another snow

Snow came in for the second time this year... And what a snow!!! About 20 cm fall overnight. Our street is transformed, dressed with the most beautiful coat of fluffy stuff.

Of course the children love it! Enjoy the day

A bit of fluff in the streets...

Snow doesn't come very often in London, but I always love it.

Last time we had a significant snow, it was almost 2 years ago...

Things have changed in the last 2 years... Oh yes they have.
Theo is born, we redid the house with loft conversion, the garden is complete. I've embarked on a new exciting adventure. Georgia managed to get back into interior design with home staging before Theo's birth. I am so proud of her going around doing her house renovations, 8 months pregnant!. Our extended family and friends has grown quite a bit as well with many new borns, who will be perfect cousins or friends for Theo when he grows. We also did a few trips to discover new cultures with Mexico, Greece and Portugal.

Change is good, it keep things interesting. And even if Auckland Hill doesn't look like it changed much in the 2 pictures below, this is only an impression!

White London - The Gloom Culture

I'm still amazed from this morning news... a clash of realities...
It snowed 10cm overnight in London. A white and silky blanket covered London. What a cool sight!

I went downstairs, turned the tv on... just in time to be splattered by the adult world reality (bbc news) describing this morning situation as 'near-blizzard conditions shredding the country travel network into pieces' or how London commuters were facing 'another travel chaos bringing the country to a stand still'.

I then went to work, walking down the road to the train station... just in time to be cheered up by the children world reality. All I could hear were screams of joy and laughter from kids discovering the snow and fighting in this new over-night playground!!!

While the US are living in the Scare Culture, UK adulthood has embraced another type... The Gloom Culture!!! sad.

Nevertheless, I let you enjoy this morning beautiful view.
