Snow, Ice and Santa


Frozen fountain in front of Parliament Buildings

Victoria had snow and very cold weather this week.  The balcony pansies shrivelled with the cold but bounced back when I brought them inside.  I grumbled at first and then enjoyed both the snow and the cold.  Tuesday was a gorgeous day and I was treated to seeing two fountains frozen.   As I wandered around I realized how attached I have become to Victoria - it is now home.  I didn't have my camera with me that day so took  the picture in this blog with my cellphone.  I have to fess up that I didn't know how to get the picture off the camera until shown 'how to' by a cellphone techie!! 



 
Snow and holly

By Friday all the snow had gone and the weather was back to normal but during the snow squall I couldn't resist going out and capturing a picture of the snow falling on a holly tree.













We live within walking distance of downtown so I decided to go to the lighted Santa Clause parade Saturday evening.  Most enjoyable.
