Snow!

Late yesterday morning, as I was stuck in the office of Gohan Boys’ Middle School (my regular morning classes having been canceled) some big, fluffy snowflakes started falling from the cold clouds above.




By lunchtime it was turning into quite the storm, altough everything down in the valley bottom was still melting on contact.




Later, when the clouds cleared a bit, you could see the trees, higher up the mountains, were holding onto plenty of shiny white crystals.




It started snowing again later, and kept at it during the night.




I was not surprised to see that the snow managed to have some staying power when I woke up (after sleeping in a bit – today’s morning classes having also been canceled, this time for a sports day…).



What a way to wake up: with one white world…



Bottom floor’s mine.



I call this playground my front yard.

While this thin sheet of snow will probably melt with today’s shining sun, and is no big deal in most minds, just remember: I have a ski resort 500 meters from my doorstep. And so I share my excitement with you.

Dear global climate change, bring on the blizzards!

p.s. Check out the rest of my most recent pictures here. I’ve even started adding picture descriptions. I know. Whoa.

    Is that the ski resort in the very top picture? In the last picture, are those blue railroad cars just above your front yard?

    First picture: No, that’s employee housing for the Kangwon Land casino.
    Last picture: Yes.
