Snow in Friesland

Like in most places in the world; Holland also got its share. We haven’t seen só much snow for such a long period.

We live in a very flat area and the view of miles and miles of snow is ever so special.
Snow makes horizons and boundaries disappear. It connects fields, it covers roads.

Although the forecast for last night and today was between +4 (the North) and +11 C (the South) and no snow for our part of Holland, we woke up in again a slightly white world. More like ‘icing on the cake snow’ (the cake still visible) but it looks nice.

It is Tjep’s first real winter in Friesland and again all expectations (except mine), he enjoys it tremendously.
The most beautiful day this winter was in January. The day started very misty which caused special effects.
We charged the batteries of our camera’s, dressed properly and went out for a day in the snow, exploring again but with a different view, our remote Friesland. Enjoy the pictures below.
