Winter Wonderland!

It snowed today in Central London.


It wasn't a great deal of snow, and it didn't last for very long - but still, SNOW! The last time it snowed in London was when I was back home waiting for my Visa, which I was gutted over missing. Suffice it to say that I was chuffed to see this today.


The flakes didn't settle for long, but that didn't stop me from ducking out into Chancery Lane to take some pictures. (Yes, I was the token Australian girl in the street with a camera, who was too busy grinning to put her coat on.)


I'm hoping to go to bed tonight and wake up to a blanket of snow - it's hardly going to happen, as it's mostly cold and rainy right now, but a girl can hope!




It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas...

  1. Yay! So lovely. It's so beautiful when it snows in a big city.

    Also, I like that even though where you're from, Christmas happens in the summer, you still associate snow with the holiday.

  2. It snowed here for about 30 minutes. Enough to dust the trees. And then more rain :) I don't have to shovel rain, so I'm ok with it. It did put me in a christmassy mood though :)

  3. We might get more tomorrow-- I'm a bit excited :) I was watching it out the window of our office yesterday. I didn't think to take my camera outside though!
