Weekend in Windsor

Last weekend, we have in Windsor, the winter residence of our beloved queen.

Let me start by saying, the place is absolutely gorgeous! I can compare it, maybe to Canterbury. The city sits on the Thames river, it is very clean and picturesque. I just enjoyed walking the streets, window shopping and breathing clean air (something you can't get in London).

Snow! Again?

You would think that it would be the end, but no...

It was snowing again this morning, really snowing!

White London

OH my GOD!
This morning, London was covered with snow...
I mean, this happen only once in 4-5 years and the city is sooo unprepared for it. All the traffic (trains, tube, buses, etc.) was delayed and people were walking with mobile phones/cameras taking pictures (yes, I did it my self).

Enjoy it, from where it is warm...

New Year

Happy New Year every one! I want to wish to all of you a happy and successful year.
For the last two week, we have been in Riga to celebrate New Year (http://picasaweb.google.com/john.markh/01012007Riga). A lot of our friends from UK came (home) to Riga to celebrate a "White" New Year. Unfortunatly, this year, there was no snow during those two weeks. It was raining most of the time and was really cold (so, why there was not snow?!?).
