Losing track a little as the year spirals to a festive close! Schools in Cape Town are rounding up and there were Carol Services at our SA Church and School that we were a little sad to miss. Up on this end though...
...We finally finished the last of the turkey in delicious croquettes! Baby shocked us with her appetite for them. After all was said and done though, no hard feelings to see the end of that bird.
...We went for a walk down Quechee Gorge and surprise! surprise! It looks quite different in Winter. There were only a few of us on the path - and probably all non-locals! We had to do an emergency toilet stop for Baby on the way home, and she saw someone that (we agree) looked like Aunty Yommin back in Cape Town, and then she screamed blue murder for a solid few minutes, insisting that we turn around to go and fetch her!
...We drove through a little bit of a snow storm on Tuesday and in hindsight, it was a little too adventurous for my liking! I had to take a self-inflicted time out once we got home. The Town is really good about clearing and salting the roads as quickly as possible after a snowfall, so the main routes seem almost normal to drive on. It's those dirt roads and side roads that can be tricky. Needless to say, the kids enjoyed the time spent at the Library and stocked up on a few extra books in case we were snowed in over the next few days.
