First snowfall of the season

Jack Frost visited us briefly yesterday, giving Wiesbaden (and most of Germany) its first snowfall of the season. Although the occassional flurries were short lived, they were a welcome sight for those of us living here who have experienced weeks of cold weather but no snow.

The flakes aren't the first we've seen this year, actually. We first saw snow this year during Andy, Mandy, and Greg's visit in late September (blog is still on its way I'm told) and then we saw A LOT of snow last weekend in the Swiss Alps (Guest blogger Barbara McCracken will tell you more about that).

Next week Kate and I will make our way to the former Yugoslav territory to take in some of the natural beauty (and beauties if Kate doesn't mind my oogling). It'll probably snow there too....but we'll provide you will all the frosty details!
