Visitors and vistings

For the new year's holiday my grandmother, my cousin Sarah and her fiancee came to visit and  were able to help out with the german youth group that celebrated  New Years at the chateau. Though, we were all rather disappointed that all the Germans  spoke english as we were all rather hoping to be able to use our 20 words of German... thoughI'm not sure how we would fit weinerschnitzel( a veal sausage( and washbeken( a sink) in the same sentence.

Here is my Grandma, my cousin and her fiancee at a castle called Brancion.

This week for 3 days straight we had very blatent  visits from good old Jack Frost. Everything was covered from grass  to tree branches to walls, all covered with frost that never melted. It was enjoyable as it looked like snow outside.

I walked around the village one morning and here was a barb wire fence with a few added icy spikes.
