Winter's End?

Virtually no photos of snow this year as it took a long time coming and there wasn't that much of it. My abiding memory will be of going down a very short, very steep slope (near home, thank goodness) on the bob, flying out of it at the bottom and landing on my coccyx. To say I could still feel the after effects a month later is not an exaggeration and I will be sticking to safer sports like skiing next year!

Amy and Tanya have fun in the courtyard.

Here's a day out we had at Mondovi in the middle of February.

Amy doing her Buddha impression.

On the way up the funicular. 

Three posers! 

Three cuties!  

The very large clock which always tells the same time.

Attempting to make use of the park in the snow.

Back in the sun!

Another day out at the Cicciu, this time mid-March and decidedly warmer.  Luca managed to set this one up using the timer. 

Probably the first picnic of the year.

Bit of a close up of Amy by Luca.

And a couple of weeks later our first trip to the sea, in honour of Manolo's birthday, where Luca, Amy and Tanya were more or less the only ones who went in the water(but weren't there long enough to be photographed!).

And one final photo of Manolo with his "birthday cake". (Organising a day at the beach had taken precedence over cake making!)
