My camera played peek- a-boo with Big Ben and the London Eye… they popped in and out of my photos as I walked up the Mall… There was something other worldly about the light this morning… it was so calm… so flat, so still… and very peaceful… I felt as if I had the world to myself… I needed vacation home rentals in florida no reminder that nature is the master of beauty…
The snow has stopped falling for now, I am back home and warm again… After hours trudging around in the snow I am so happy to be inside… Snow in London, of this quantity, is rare… special.. It is the kind of snowfall that has strangers chatting in the street, vacation home rentals in florida looking vacation home rentals in florida out for each other and comparing snaps… vacation home rentals in florida I am meant to leave for France tomorrow… and as much as I want to get back to Provence… I also want the snow to keep falling… and falling…
I m headed to Colorado in a couple of weeks just to see snow. Everything vacation home rentals in florida always looks so gorgeous and i love the QUIET! especially out in the woods where I will be. Hope it hasn t melted by the time we get there!!!
