Yesterday we got our first snow of the winter. I did not want to take the same pictures like last year (of my street and the little park where I work), you can see them here if you like: http://dieastra.livejournal.com/187916.html

We usually don't get snow for very long in Dresden so deep down in the valley, so it is always exciting for children. After work I did a quick walk in our big park in the city center.

The ducks and swans have only a small piece of lake left to swim in:

I was looking whether it was safe already to get the skates out, but maybe better not:

The building at the other side is a little restaurant / café called "Carolaschlößchen" (the lake is called Carolasee, named after our last queen)

Pretty! My neighborhood was supposed to get 2-4 inches of snow today and let's just say the weatherpeople underestimated the amount. But by midweek it's supposed to warm up and rain so it will be fine.

Uh, but when it becomes warm and thaws and then freezes again then it becomes very slippery!

I like the snow staying for a while. Often it thaws the next morning already. If it stays cold for one more week, maybe next weekend I can do some skating. Not on this pond, there is another smaller one which freezes easier. No ducks in there.
