This was my first time.
6km for 2 hours.
I couldn't even walk properly after skiing but it was a fun experience. :-)
Of course, I needed to eat then.
Many stores are now holding huge sales of winter products and some have started displaying spring products already.
In reality, it's snowing everyday and the highest temperature is still around -10C.
Pet bottle shrinks immediately after it is exposed to the outside temperature.
In spite of great effort by snow-removing cars, streets were covered with snow completely again.
There is advantage that you can enjoy beautiful snow art easily, though.
Sun rises 8:45 and sets 16:22. Length of day is 7 h 37 min. Temperature -15.0 °C
Daytime is getting longer little by little and sunlight is becoming stronger little by little.
Soft rime is gone and there has been less snow as snow-removing cars come everyday to get rid of snow on the streets.
Since yesterday, it started to snow again.
Because it is very dry and cold enough, you cannot make snow balls here.
Your hands don't get wet even if you grab ice pillars.
Nobody uses umbrella while it's snowing hard, except me. ;-)
I, actually found umbrella is kind of useful to protect against cold wind.
Ice pillars
Snow flake is shining and snow crystal is visible. They looks like small stars and are very beautiful.

"Get your ass kicked" was the slogan in the poster of Elixia, one of the popular gyms in Finland.
As I go to the gym in the morning, I see many senior citizens there. They dance, do weight lifting, work out with machines. Keeping their back straight, they look cool.
After working out, one naturally gets hungry.
You can't fight on an empty stomach.
