White Christmas, really white

posted December 22, 2005


Lots of snow fell on Kyoto overnight and though the day today, the most I’ve seen since I came to Japan. Greg (age 1 year 10 months) and I went to the park and made a snowman. A little keitai phonecam video. Just after this video ends it started snowing hard, very hard, and I had to carry him home because I was scared of him falling. Tomorrow I’ll probably find that there is no snow accumulation in Osaka. That’s what happened last week. It doesn’t seem like there should be that dramatic a difference, but there always is.

    Not that I’m there at the moment, but I heard from my coworker back in Kagoshima that we got about a foot (30cm) of snow on Thursday/Friday, and it didn’t completely melt until early Saturday. Quite unusual for our part of Kagoshima.

    That video was so adorable! I hope my kids are that cute.

    Man, I wish it snowed that much here in pennsylvania. Those were some huge clumps coming down.

    …God Greg is adorable!
