A Snowy Day in Seoul

Yay! We have had our first proper snowfall!

We emerged from the subway about 11.30pm last night to a light sprinkling of snow, which grew to a heavy downfall of 10 cent-sized flakes by the time we reached our apartment. We awoke to beautiful scene of blinding white snow and sunshine. The below zero temps were definitely worth bearing as we ran around the neighbourhood like little Aussie kids who had just stumbled upon a fairytale land.

As we descended the mountain we discovered a discrete Buddhist temple hidden in a backstreet

That snow looks amazing! I hope it is still around when we arrive ... fingers crossed. I can't wait!
