Today on the second day of Advent it suddenly started to snow. Nevertheless, we used the time for a small walk in the forest with our dog. The wind was so strong that the snowflakes were driven from left to right. It was really uncomfortable. Well, this weather is normal at this time of the year. It was still fun because we were dressed warm.
