The Two Blondes had an excellent day yesterday filled with all of the things on my ‘expectations’ list and a lot more besides. It was lovely and snowy on tops of the hills and some of it was quite deep. We spent some time sitting around waiting for our teams to get back from unaccompanied legs of the route and while we were waiting we found ourselves doing some very childish things. We wrote messages in the snow, made snow angels and I was introduced to eating snow (not the yellow stuff!) by Blonde Two. This last one was new to me but gave me a childlike thrill which on the most part I cannot explain! But I thoroughly recommend it. I have one little regret, that I didn’t have time to build a snowman, but there’s always next year. It was good to see that whilst up on the hills we were not the only adults playing.
It seems that the snow brings out the inner child in us all!
Snow is there to be played in and enjoyed!!! I’ve missed it this year – I’ll be one of the first lying in it making snow angels!!! I always eat the snow too – somehow always tastes amazing!
Had my first snow on Ben Nevis on a scorching hot day in summer. Tammy-the-dog took to the water instead – don’t know why it hadn’t melted. The snow, I mean, not the water or the dog.
