SNOW!


I am a little behind in the posts...but thought that since this topic is gettin' all the press, it would be timely.

We awoke after a night in Liverpool, (watching the 'football'....hence the need for more posts,) and I came down into the hotel lobby for a morning run, to see the tv screens all turned to CNN and the big ticker....

"LONDON UNDERGROUND - ALL LINES SUSPENDED! NO BUS SERVICE DUE TO SEVERE WEATHER!"




No tube...no buses...hmmmm. (I was mocked a bit for saying..."The tubes are down, the tubes are down." I guess the correct term, is the underground. Pllllbbbbbbhhhhhhsssss. That's my raspberry.)

We spent the day with our eyes on the storm, talking about how amazing the city must be....and checking the train schedule for updates hourly. After one canceled train, and a pretty lengthly delay, we arrived home to a quiet city. The underground was back up and the sidewalks and stoops were covered with snow.

The next day was another snowday - and we headed out in the heath. Beautiful!
