Lyon - Snow has been blowing in the air all day and they say it's set to snow more tomorrow. The Junior Members are distraught - what if the roads are blocked and we're snowed into Lyon for Christmas???!?!? What if we can't get to the mountains??? (Don't worry. I already have snow tyres on the car.)

We got a village sized skating rink now! The snow was just enough so that it formed a nice sized ice layer .. haha .... I need those metal teeth on my snow boots to be able to go outside!

A nice balmy -3 today, sun's out and no wind. Back to a T shirt and jeans.dancing

Amazing what a few days of -46 can do, to make one appreciate those more pleasant days.laugh

Here in southwest France it started snowing this afternoon and it's still snowing. Not much accumulation yet, maybe 3 or 4 centermeters. But by morning it'll be a mess I think. Gee I wish Global Warming was real.

Ah yes... I was told the "correct" method for Kafee-Vertig today ..... you put a coin in the glass .... pour in the coffee till you cant see the coin anymore ... then fill with the schnapps till you can see the coin again .... then fill with hot water.

Only problem is I use Benedectine liquour which is DARK ... so hahahahahaaaaa........ Fall-down-drunk-Kafee-Finito!grin
