after the heavy snowfall the day before, i woke to sunshine sparkling off a snow covered landscape. the day was calm and windless, a perfect day for a stroll and photo-shoot around the lake. the deep untouched snow did make for some hard walking, but it was so beautiful that i didn’t mind
today i dressed in my new lace skirts (see tutorials for more info on them) and a lovely thick, soft jacket made of shocking pink, malabrigio sock yarn and trimmed with cotton lace. once again i wrapped my bamboo scarf around my neck to keep out the chill.
the sun was already melting the snow, so i debated climbing up a nice little path i found.
but in the end i decided it was just too steep and slippery…
so i sat down to enjoy the view for a while instead.
it really was a gorgeous view!
here you can see just how far i had walked. i started out at the chateau….
and walked all the way around the lake to the other end!
the snow was so clean and untouched…
i just had to make a snow angel
then it was time to head back for just in time for dinner.
on the way back i stopped to watch some brave people scaling a huge ice fountain on the cliffside.
but was just as happy to stay on the ground this time.
