Good morning from Madarao. And Happy New Year!


The snow clouds have cleared leaving us with a picture perfect view of the mountain this morning, looking beautiful with a blue sky backdrop. Some people may be struggling to get up early this morning but it will surely be worth it.


The mountain looks... delicious! A large portion of Madarao please, perhaps with a side dish of Tangram.


Don't worry, it is keeping cold and snow should be falling again tomorrow.


Have yourself a fine New Years Day.
