Even though the very reliable Norwegian Met office app didn’t forecast snow here today it began around 11 and didn’t really stop until 3. Much heavier than last time – enough for it to lie around and be getting slushy and very slippery for our walk late this afternoon.

Apparently, according to our Air BnB host Lorenzo, it only snows like this every five or six years – and we weren’t alone at the Fortezza this afternoon – folk were taking photos, throwing snowballs, building snow people and the kids were improvising sleds.

So we didn’t have to wait for Iceland for a walk in the snow.
