Walking in a winter wonderland

On New Year's Day we awoke to a veritable winter wonderland. It had snowed considerably (for us, anyway) over night and beautiful fresh powder was everywhere! I wish I had skis or at least a sled!

We had planned on going on a long walk as usual, but decided to take a different route in light of the snow and visited Jesmond Dene.

I love that last photo - it really shows the contrast from the photo we took on that bridge when we were there in May.
