det er snevejr i dag!

well, it has finally happened. the first day of real snow this season in copenhagen. f global warming; i was beginning to believe that this may not happen at all. it's a good reminder that winter does not always have to be so gloomy and drab during these months... which is all that it's been up until now! i felt like a tourist all over again taking pictures of the snowstorm. it's really pretty; i think this might be my first experience in this weather [if you should exclude seattle, but that wasn't anything big and i was only visiting].

a small note: it's a bit harder to bike in the snow than it seems. it's slushy, icy, and when the pellets hit your face, it's not the best thing in the world. it's only 2pm and i feel like i've gotten some things accomplished. though i went to bed at 230am, i somehow woke up at 6 and couldn't fall back asleep. christina went to the bank, did some grocery shopping, picked up her bike from the train station, and ran a couple of other errands.

i had no idea how out of shape i was until i started riding across all of the 5 degree slope that one should call a bridge across the canal! for those of you who know copenhagen, there are no hills at all, for which i am eternally grateful. i hope i get off my ass to ride to the gym in a couple of hours.
