Snow in March

03.05.11 - San Lorenzo de El Escorial, Spain - It snowed again. In March. And it snowed so much this time it actually stuck around for more than 5 hours. Per usual it did make for some pretty pictures.

Ominous clouds behind the monastery.

This was the next morning (Saturday) where a poor groomsman had to make a dash through the snow to get to his car to pick up his waiting partner (girlfriend? bride?) outside the Miranda-Suizo Hotel.
Snowmen!

Snow - Part 1

11.30.10 - San Lorenzo de El Escorial, Spain - Anyone who tells you that it is always sunny and warm in Spain is a liar. In fact, it even snows sometimes, especially when you live in a mountainside village. Between the periodic snow this year and the daily Galician rain showers of last year, my vision of sunny Spain has successfully been skewed. The only good things I can say about it is: it's pretty; it makes even Spanish children creepily quiet; and it usually melts in a day.

Hoorah!
