Winter had been late to arrive here in Sweden too. We have had the occasional blustery winter day when the snow falls and the sun doesn't shine. Oh wait, the sun doesn't shine too often on those non-snowy day either.
Here are some photos of Uppsala in the snow.
One morning I woke up in a winter wonderland.
This also happened to be the day my parents arrived.
There were welcomed to Sweden by a thick blanket of snow :)
Blanketing snow has been rare though. The snow here, I have been noticing, more often then not comes up from the ground. I know this sounds crazy but its true. In Sweden both rain and snow come out of the ground. During the warmer months the ground always looked as though it had just rained but it hadn't. And now that the temperature are below freezing its now longer rain coming out of the ground, it's snow! Well I guess its actually a thick layer of frost but it becomes so thick that it looks as though it has snowed.
