Searching for Snow

While our friends and family in the United States have been enduring some recent bitter cold temperatures, we decided to seek out cold and snow in Cyprus.  It really only snows in the mountains here, so we headed to Troodos.  On our way, we stopped for a chilly picnic lunch at a nice picnic site with a playground.  The kids had a good time running around and then we continued on up the mountain.  We found some patches of snow, but nothing too significant.  Alex and Sofia were still excited and attempted a snowball fight, snow angels, and a small snowman.  The fresh mountain air must have worn us out because everyone but Demetris, the driver, fell asleep on the way home.
