It Snowed!

Though we live in the foothills of the Himalayas, it rarely snows here. Winter is the dry season, so we miss out on the fluffy white stuff more often than not. This past weekend, however, we got a special Christmas treat! It snowed! And even accumulated about an inch or so overnight. We had a blast watching the city transform into a winter wonderland.

We attempted to visit a nearby mountaintop for a snowy play date, but icy road conditions turned us back. Still, enough snow had collected by the roadside to keep us entertained!

Finally, temperatures plummeted to -17°C (or 1.4°F) overnight this week. That might not seem all that impressive to some of you until you consider the fact that buildings are not heated here. When was the last time you woke up indoors and saw your breath, huh!?
