Snow again!

Last night we had 1-2 inches of snow across Edinburgh - more than we've had so far, but not as much as some areas of England last week, where there has been widespread disruption (but then, they're really not used to it...). This was the view from the car on our way to work this morning; Arthur's Seat looking even more imposing than usual.

Over the coming days I'll post some more pictures of yesterday's beautiful snowy walk just south of Edinburgh.

I'm going around the world today, viewing at least one blog per continent. Trying to view new blogs, not just my old standards.

You are the choice for Europe. The snow scene is lovely.

We started a daily photo site recently. Stop by if you get a chance.

I love all these snow pics. We have it falling heavily again at the moment (Gloucestershire).

Edinburgh is beautiful any time of year but it really is gorgeous in the snow. Thanks for such a beautiful reminder.

When I was a kid growing up in Edinburgh we could see Arthur Seat from our house. I remember having a dreadful dream in which this extinct volcanic plug suddenly erupted, spewing out lava and flames and stuff! I was scared to go to sleep for nights after!!!

Bondbloke; if I'm not mistaken it's the crossing of Newhaven Road/Ferry Road! And thanks for all your kind comments :-)

Hmm, now I look at it more closely I can see that it is.

I think it is that it is so surreal that threw me, especially with Arthur's Seat looking a bit like a huge rising moon...
