Major Snow in Osaka

The morning of February 9, 2008 (Saturday) was characterized with a really cold air. I spent the night in Dio and Mars' apartment since we went drinking that night and I didn't trust myself to ride my bike and go home under the influence of alcohol. :pThat day the snow started falling around 8am.The ironic thing was that my cellphone's battery ran out the night before so I couldn't take pictures with it.But I was still very excited to see the think flakes of snow falling so I begged Mars to go out with me so that he could take my picture in his cellphone. He was a little reluctant at first since there weren't plenty of snow yet but he did it anyway. ;P hehehehe

After breakfast/brunch the snow still hadn't stopped so I urged him for another picture session outside. This time he was excited also since there were now more than an inch thick of snow on the road side and the highway.

I actually don't know whose house this is but it looks so wintery with the front bushes and plants all covered with snow so we decided to take our designated poses here.

This is the third session of picture taking that day. Before I head home we had these pictures. Sho-sensei and Dio joined us in this one. (I headed home walking since I was too chicken to ride my bike with all that snow).

This was my first major snow in Osaka. I've been living here for almost 2 years but this was the only time I experienced a major snowfall. Well, better late than never, right?
