Just in time for 1st of Advent
we got snow
and we could enjoy
this winter weather for almost two weeks .
William and I walked to church
and took lots of snowy pictures.

St. Pauli is a beautiful church in and of itself,
but even prettier surrounded by snow.
We lit a candle for our neighbor Jim
who was buried that Friday.

After the sermon we had coffee,
and the senior choir, in which Mom sings,
were singing Christmas carols.
were singing Christmas carols.
Outside was this tree with
golden leaves that lit up the winter landscape.
After having dinner with my parents
William and I went for a
two hour walk through town and took photos.

Above the streets there were lights
and lit pine decorations lined the walking street.
Lilla torg with all the old houses
was beautiful as always

and the shops had their windows
decorated for Christmas.
It was really cold outside,
and the fingers hurt as we were taking photos.

At Gustav Adolfs torg they had the big trees
decorated in different ways
and lots of lights covered the middle of the square
and warmed up the ground,
but the statue in the pond was still freezing.
The Christmas stalls were closed for the day

and above the walking street
it was like a sky full of tiny stars.
We walked towards home
inside the Old Graveyard
following the canal
where the lights guided us on our way.

The main library
and the Casino looked like fairy castles in the dark.

At home,
we each had a big cup of hot cocoa.
