I paid a new year's visit to Ikegami Honmonji shrine today.  Every year, I pray for my mother's health, but this year I also prayed for David Paterson to rest in piece.

Even our small European continent shows a high climate diversity :)

True to weather forecasts, snow is falling, and much more to come. Oh well.

Thank you John and Fons for the comments.

  Today, first day of 2024, we have had a perfect day for the beach. Spending it with family at "Faro de Trafalgar".
