Belfast under Snow


Christmas Lights Outside City Hall


Also around Christmas, Belfast was blanketed in white.  The snow stayed on the ground for an unheard-of amount of time—apparently, the city normally gets the “gone by morning” sort of snow.  But this snow stayed morning after morning, and it was beautiful against the brick houses and green fields; snowmen appeared in the gardens, and people were sledging (sledding) all across Stormont Park.  We even had a white Christmas.  Most of the time, I thoroughly enjoyed the snow…but to be fair, that’s probably because I didn’t have to drive in it.
