winter wonderland

after 2 days of snow, the weather finally cleared. and what a beautiful view we were then given!

as it was, my lunchtime lesson was cancelled, so i had time to go home, change and drive up the mountain to a spot where you can walk in the pretty much untouched beauty, surrounded only by tall trees covered in snow. the sound on walking on snow, the silence that comes with the white blanket... truly amazing. i took my camera with me, but of course the batteries had run out... still, it was really nice.
