Really jetlagged now, decided to go home early today to finish unpacking and to get some rest. Yx called just before lunch, which was a nice turn to the day.

Anyway about the snowman, it was really hard work! I was in charge of gathering up all the snow while yx packed the snow into the body, and we really worked up a sweat on that one. We made it on the field which was visible from her window, used pinecones for eyes, a stout stick for the nose and a "V"-shaped branch for his mouth. Then I lent him the beanie and scarf my mom knitted for my Nepal trip and he ended up looking really merry indeed! This bunch of 5 guys came by and started admiring the snowman!

Ice-skating was fun! And my, yx really improved a lot and can skate really fast now. I suck at the snowplough stop though, it doesn't stop me, it only made me go faster. =\
