last thursday it was snowing the entire day, but as it wasnt cld enough, nothing stayed on the ground. overnight it got cold, and we woke up to quite a layer of snow on friday. when we got to work they already had been busy for hours to get the roads clear, as you can see here. but... crossing streets is always messy; all the snow from the roads gets piled up, and as a pedestrian you just have to climb over it, and often sink deep into it. as you cant see where the pavement stops and starts, you might even sink deeper and you really have to be careful.... during the day it warmed up a bit, and this pile of snow became a slushy-mess. yuck!! so high waterproof boots are really a must!!
over the weekend it got warmer, and in no time all the snow has melted again... now we got quite some rain, so i still get to wear my boots.. :D

ah yeah, we cross every day here!
That looks ugly to walk through.
This year cleaning changed here, people had complained that pedestrians and cyclist always had to go through the mud and last year were injured by gliding. Now they clean the cycling and walking paths too and it was such a relief to have a clean path this year.
