More Snow

This morning we woke to a decent snowfall, the best since we arrived in Switzerland! There's more coming tonight too - perfect for fun outdoors.
 
 
 
The patio wall ends where the dark line is, the topping is all snow
 

 
 
 
 
Can you see our car between the trees?

 
 
 
 
Snow makes the slide super fast so it was hilarious watching Flynn fly like a rocket off the end


 
 
 
Shovelling the driveway still feels like a novelty


 
 
 
Then off to the hill behind us, just five min's walk and we're on a small ski slope. Flynn is a total daredevil and was gatecrashing the snow jump some ten-year-olds made - and jumping it better than them. Then he came down the hard-snow walking path (further up the hill) at a hair-raising pace, yeeharring the whole way so as not to kill any unsuspecting walker who might be around the corner.


 
 
 
 
"Whaddya mean it's time to go home?"

 
 
 
The light fades pretty early now but this was the walk home at around 5pm (much lighter than usual given the brightness of the snow)
