My first encounter with snow is kind of special. As it is just the day before I went for a trip to Breckenridge, a ski village in Colorado. It was an eventful holiday. The holiday started with, a delayed flight and a lost luggage. Due to that, our arrival to the Breckenridge was somewhat delayed. All is not lost though as the brilliant trip planners have somehow factored these events and our first day was actually meant for some casual walk around and drive about.
We began our journey to Breckenridge from Denver after lunch. My first sight of the snow-capped mountains and evergreen lined slopes took my breath away. We stopped at a 7-11 in Frisco for a cuppa hot choc. The weather was just nice, fresh and crisp.

Love the snowy peaks! Even more when I'm up close & personal with it!
Even with the delays, grocery stops and hot choc stops we managed to reach Breckenridge just before nightfall. It was such a wonderful place to behold, quaint buildings, roofs topped with fluffy snow. Our lodging for 3 nights in this ski village is a 3 storeyed townhouse with a deck and hot tub as well as a cozy fireplace.

Due to cold weather I have less time being a shutter bug (trembling fingers are not good at taking pictures in low light). On top of that, till today our group haven't manage to compile all the photos taken by the multitude of cameras. :(

Snow is great until it melts and then refreezes to form ice and a death trap to many unsuspecting old ladies who then turn up in A&E with hip or wrist fractures..poor souls
