London Snow Storm

The biggest snowfall in 18 years has hit London, and we are loving it. It started flurrying off and on yesterday afternoon, and by the evening we had a light dusting. The girls went out to check out the snow on the 55 sign.



We had a few friends over for cake for my birthday last night. Then some of us went to Eclectic Electric night at Inspiral Lounge. On the way, we had a snowball fight in the courtyard by the canal. Oli took a few shots to the face.

It kept on snowing, and by the time the music and poetry finished at Inspiral, there were a couple inches on the ground. We ran into a trader I know from the market, and decided to walk with him up to Primrose Hill. On the way, we picked up a few sledding implements. It was a beautiful scene at the top, and pretty good sledding.



Then this morning we went back out with the girls, and called up one of their friends to meet us at the hill. The best runs had iced up overnight, and were too fast and dangerous for the kids. You can see all the people crowded at the top of the hill - people were snowboarding down, and someone had even built a ski jump - it was mayhem. So we had a snowball fight instead, then headed for a cafe. It's currently 5:30 at night, and still coming down steadily.
