Snow, finally!

This winter has been extra lousy since we haven't had any decent snow so far - until last weekend (end of March, that is! I heard it's already hanami in Tokyo...). With decent I mean snow that would actually stay on the ground at least for one day. It has snowed few times all right, but it has always melted into this nasty slush already the same day. Anyway, we used this rare opportunity to take Lina for a ride in a sled.

We also stopped by the nearby playground.





Lina got frustrated with the too-difficult-to-climb rope stairs and demonstrated her feelings by lying on the ground:

After the outing, she fell asleep on my lap:
