snow flakes!

8.00 am today, as I walked my way to hospital - the snow was falling, and the city is fully covered by snow. It was about -4 degree celcious. Not that freezing, just enuf to keep the snow coming. It was quite dark still and I cant really the snow. But, on my way back home, as the sun was shining brightly, I could see the sparkle from the snow flakes, and I really tempted to jump on the snow outside the hospital and have a snow fight. Unfortunately, my frens werent really into it. Maybe they were still tired after a day at the hospital.

So, I sms Shida, that we gonna go outing at the park today and have some fun with the fresh snow. She agreed , plus cik sue and sya also would love to join us. The best time to play with the snow is when it's still fresh - meaning during the first week of snow fall because snow flakes only fall down during the early part of winter. In the middle winter, there is no more snow flakes, it's more like a cotton - smashing onto ur faces. What's the different btwn snow flakes and other snow? If u want to make a snow man, or have some snow ball fight, u gonna need the snow flakes because snow flakes bind stronger.

Enuf with the snow flakes story then. So, 4 of us, head to the park. It was around 3.oo pm. Need to be fast because by 4.00 pm, it's already dark here. ( maghrib masuk dalam pukul 4 ptg during winter). The weather was really good, not too cold, around -5 degree I guess ; the snow was falling lightly, just enuf to bring the mood alive :)

As we reached the park, the photography session started! Yup, typical Malaysian, we just cant leave home without the camera nowdays... hahaha. The snow was fresh, not so many people, and it did look like we were in Alps or somewhere near there. The view was breathtaking. The lake was half frozen and the trees were covered with snow. I'm really gonna miss this view. This is my final winter here in moscow.

In the photo above, u can see the lake is half frozen. There were still some wild ducks having some last swin there coz I believe in few more days, the lake gonna be fully frozen and the russian will start sking on that. Yup, in photo also u can see the girl scouts , marching thru the snow. hahahhahaa...

and here the 3 girl scouts - sya, shida and sue. Three best friends, the musketeer, three future docs, 3 - whatever it is. :P. Anyway, we all had fun, shall we go there again girls???
