It's all a bit different

Snows completely gone and it's either muddy when it rains or clouds of dust when it's dry. First couple of days it's been raining and even snowing again yesterday, but we are assured it will be fine and warm from next week onward.
The view that now greets us as we open the curtains in the morning
We were back in UK for 28 days last month and it rained for 24 of those so a bit of sun at last will be welcome. Also, it's light at the moment until about 22:30 because of the latitude location and it can only get lighter later - White nights as the Russians call it.
As far as latitude is concerned we reckon we are on par with being as far north as Fair Isle, which is between the Shetlands and Orkney Islands, around 59.3 north.

Back to self catering and wondering what else is cooking in the kitchen - we are still not keen on the local fish.

I'm sure that fish just winked at me
