yann in the arctic

It was urg but now it's yay.

Just when snow had started building up (there isn't much precipitation here), the temperature suddenly rose ... above zero degrees !!! And on top of that, it even started raining! Longyearbyen looked like the biggest dump ever. It was horrible and very very depressing, especially since this isn't meant to happen. March is supposed to be the coldest month (which we are not yet in) and we had 4 degrees !!!

Anyways, this morning it started snowing very heavily. There was a horrible whiteout outside all day (I didn't go out - hence why I am out of food right now!), but as the evening approached it settled down a bit, leaving lots of lovely fresh snow ^^

So overall this place now looks magical again :)
