Winter again...

Winter has returned to Malito - snow and all. A freezing wind blew through the village last night and we woke up to a soft layer of snow covering Malito and the surrounding countryside. I was meant to start a temporary work project today at a local school, but it was closed due to the horrible weather conditions!

Can't get any better than having a "snow day" for your first day of work!

Just call it part of Mad March weather. We got snow here today in Lazio and that is really really unusual in our part of the world.

Hi Jana,
The sun seems to have come out again in Calabria. I hope it has for you up there too.

Hi Gil,
You're right - I felt like I was lying with my snow story, but it was true!

Hi Cathy,
I saw the snow in Lazio, now that is odd!

Hi Angela,
So you visit Rogliano! I teach there twice a week at the local school - its so close to Malito!
