Wenn man von der Sonne schreibt... *strahlesmile*

Enjoy watching rather than reading today: I want you to show you some pictures from my winter walk Saturday afternoon which helped to clear my head from the Scandinavian and the German club's Christmas party the night before (and - less successfully - from an absolutely adorable girl I met there who unfortunately disappeared far too early). I took roughly the same route of my summer walk with Lucka, so revisit that entry to for the map and for comparison.

I took some pictures at roughly the same spots I did earlier this year. First of all I'm sure you remember the Great Divide Waterfall!? Here (No 1) / (No 2) are the pictures I took during the summer - and this is what it looks like now: Yep, the Saskatchewan is frozen. Since weeks. Unfortunately I missed the time when it was in the process of freezing and when you could see all the ice. Now it hardly looks like a river anymore..

And this is a view of downtown from a spot Lucka showed me during that walk. Now this looks sooo different than the summer photo! (I’m yearning for spring when I compare.)


And a last one: This is again the Muttart conservatory - the botanical garden. Unfortunately the picture didn't work out completely due to the dark glass - the idea was to catch both the outside (snow and ice) and the inside (palm trees and cactuses). At least I know now where I’ll go if I happen to be completely fed up with ice and snow in April or so and desperate for a break.. :-)
