beautiful weather

Yes, this is a post about the weather. I am talking about the weather.

I think my perspective may have changed just a little. I still think anything below 60*F is too cold. I still get overly excited about snow. I still dress about four times more warmly then anyone else in this country. I still get laughed at by my Swiss and Canadian and Russian friends.
However, now I can walk outside when it's 2*C out, sigh and say, "Omigod, it's so nice out!"

I think I've mentioned before that Swiss weather is entirely unpredictable. When we left right before Christmas, it was pouring rain. When we got back, it was freezing, but no snow. A week an a half ago, we got 8 inches of snow in one night--which is really rare here, and shocked everyone. About three days later, the temperature rose to 8*C, and it's hovered between 2* and 4* ever since.

It even got nice to the point that the Jet d'Eau was turned on again!

On my way to ballet.

But... all good things come to an end. The forecast for tomorrow? Snow.
Not complaining, though. I still love snow.
