Winter wonderland!

The weather has been great up to now. We had our first frost on Saturday morning and apart from it feeling "fresh" we have been treated to blue skies with very little wind. Yesterday, it started snowing, very lightly at first and once again with little wind.

This morning it is snowing again, very gently and still with no wind.


This means that the snow has landed on the trees, it has piled up on the branches and stayed there just occasionally falling off when there is too much.


All the trees, olives and almonds are covered but in different "styles" as the almonds are just branches whereas the olives retain their leaves.


La ermita de San Juan, which is across the road from us, looks magnificent in the snow.

We must have had at least 10 cms of snow but it is very sparse under the trees as most of it is still on them! Hona, our dog, seemed to enjoy the experience of running in the snow however!
