SNOW ...finally!!

Here are a few photos I took on the way home from work this morning! I had to hunt a little to find the snow and it was freezing at the top of the Beacon !!!~ well, it would be there was snow on the ground !!!

The rest of the UK has had snow on and off for a few weeks but in my part of Cornwall we have had nothing ...till today.

Looking across at St Agnes Beacon

New York

Some of my favourite photos from my trip to New York in November 2011




Disney store in Times Square


Awesome Times Square

A sneak preview of the Swarovski crystal star on the top of the Rockerfeller Christmas tree



The store-front decorations were mind-blowing



And of course Central Park was stunning. I thought being the end of November the trees would already have dropped all their leaves but the unusually mild autumn meant that they were still on the trees and truly beautiful :)
