The more it snows

It's been snowing all week. The temperature's not got any warmer than -5C all week. And Warsaw's been moving smoothly all week. A proper Warsaw winter, in other words. As long as I'm properly dressed, such winters hold no fear, and Warsaw (unlike other capitals I can think of) is coping well. Traffic flows smoothly, public transport keeps working, and in the office, no one even mentions the weather outside.

This morning's locomotions between one office and another and the Embassy and back gave me a chance to walk through a very special part of Our City.

Park Ujazdowski, from the entrance on ul. Piękna

Park Ujazdowski - snow-covered benches, footpaths and trees

Park Ujazdowski - bridge over the ornamental stream

Ul. Agricola, looking to Pl. Na Rozdrożu. Statue of Jan III Sobieski on right.

Looking down the Vistula escarpment - ul. Agricola

Outside our office: cars snowed in on Al. Szucha
