It only took a few frosty nights, a tiny
bit of snowfall and some sunshine: we were back in the beautiful winter track.
Wednesday was one of the recent lovely sunny days. I drove to check the snowy views from the hilltop of the Old Castle
of Lieto. Not bad even in wintertime I dare say.
Two weeks ago, we climbed the hill to
watch the sun set. We also happened to spot the moon rise in the opposite
direction for a short moment before it disappeared behind the heavy cloud cover.
If you missed my posts on the hilltop and the scenes from there in June and July you might want to have a look here and here. Those views are almost like from another world. Despite my continued difficulties to stand the cold deep down I am well and truly happy both the extremes are from that of
mine.
Just so beautiful. You are so patient waiting for great shots and frozen to the bone no doubt. The mist rolling in is stunning. A fantastic part of the world. B x
ReplyDeleteYou are correct, Barbara. Whenever we have some sunshine we try to head somewhere to admire Mother Nature's winter wonderland.
DeleteThat is stunning and I immediately recognized that view from last June. I'm not sure I will enjoy driving on those snowy roads! Sarah x
ReplyDeleteFor winter driving we must have winter tyres. In fact, they are compulsory for all motor vehicles on our roads from the beginning of December until the end of February so winter driving is not that bad once you get used to it.
