The one where the snow stuck around more than a few minutes

So it finally snowed in Gyeongju enough to notice and stuck long enough to get some photos! This is Cheonggang Temple near my place around noon today. Yes, I am well aware that the "folks back home" are used to snow, but are they used to Buddhist temples in snow? Hmm?


The sun was playing keep away with the clouds, but he did manage a few moments on some distant hills. The cats seem fascinated by the drippy sounds of it all turning to liquid outside this afternoon. At least I hope that drippy sound is outside.

Today is the start of the holiday New Years weekend. From force of habit, I stocked up on essentials (read: spring water and bread), but the last few years, it's become apparent that some stores are always open no matter. Good ol' corner markets!

Have a great New Years weekend one and all!
