Goodbye warm sunny days

I think autumn has really started now unfortunately. Grey skies, a lot of heavy rain and storm. The leaves on the trees are still green, but for how long? I think they will fall of soon. One thing where the rain makes happy faces will be on  all the plants an trees because it was so dry in Holland the last couple of weeks.

King Winter has arrived

After a some winter months that looked and felt like autumn with a lot of rain and high temperatures even on Christmas, King winter has arrived on Monday. At daytime temperatures do not reach the above zero point. So it is freezing all day and night. At night minus 10. It will probably getting colder. I like the winter. I also do like the snow and ice and it looks so white an bright outside because the sun is shining. It looks like a real winter wonderland. All to do now is dress for this winter temperatures since here in Holland we are not quite used to weather like this.
