    Thanks Mags for remain me!
    But here is not that warm in winter! Actually today we are at 4 degrees here in Barcelona ( now less), it is truth that here ( Barcelona) rarely snows, just once or twice a year, and not very impressive as we have the Mediterranean which works as a heater but beside the coast ,Spain can be really really cold! as most of the country ,beside the coast and Andalusia, is a huge plateau of 1000 meters, so last week in most of Castile region they where at - 9 the whole week!, So the warm weather in Spain is truth........ in summer, In winter just a legend LOL.Despite this we are not Canada hahahaha!,so our snowing here are not as impressive as the one of the pics!.Thank you for such a beautiful Christmas pics!
    Hugs Mags!.

    wow 4 degrees is not very warm. We are stuck in a storm since Sunday.....no plows on the road so no cars going anywhere. All the schools, roads....everything closed. good to have lots of food at times like this when you are stuck. There really are about three feet of snow in the lane. Annecan does not live that far from me or Tina....not sure how snow they have received.

    In on area in Canada there is a state or emergency with people stuck in their cars on the highways.....apparently sending in the military.

    stay warm pepe.....sending you hugs

    Maglets it's not a joke!
    Is the first time in 40 years we are in State of alarm! parliament declared it one week ago ,since the Air controllers started a wild strike ,illegally and with no advice ! it was a big bank holiday of 5 days and millions of people became trapped at the airports, so by first time our feeble socialist government reacted fast and well, they asked permission to the parliament to declare the state of alarm, (one stage more than state of emergency and one less than state of war!) and put the military air controllers to drive the air traffic ! Hehehehehe , they deserve !So they will be under martial rules until after Christmas just in case! Good by once!.
    Hugs!

    Mags,

    We really don't have much snow - just enough to make it look pretty. I saw your pics + can hardly believe how much you have.

    Celsius
    Hey Buckwirth... I believe Pepe is meaning 4C (about 39F), although if it's going down to -7C, then that will be about 19.5F Brrrrrrr! Most countries are on the Celsius scale except the US, Belize and I think Jamaica. There might be a couple others but most have converted over. Now, having said that, I can't remember when Canada switched over (about 20-25 years ago?)... and even still, in my mind I convert Celsius to Fahrenheit and kmh to mph :D That's a sign one is getting older when one is bi-lingual in temperature and speed. LOL!!

    G'day Mags and Pepe
    We have 32 deg celcius here but we have had 101/2 inces of rain in the last couple of weeks. Nearly all of the eastern states of Aust have major flooding with several drownings in cars swept off roads. Well in the words of one of our old lady poets. "I love a sunburned country,a land of sweeping plains,of rugged mountain ranges,of drought and flooding rain." She got that bit right:):):)Ron.

    The snow is very pretty, but you can keep it!! ( We had a crazy huge snowstorm here in Virginia last winter during my surgery and hospitalization!.....I was stuck in the hospital an extra day or so and really didn't have visitors as my family couldn't get out! ) I am really hoping for a warm winter!!!!

    Have fun playing in the snow!!!

    Take Care, Barb
