16: Manawatu River

Manawatu River with flood protection work on bank

A summer's day beside the river- not as peaceful as it appears- those white spots on the river are 'white caps' blowing upstream as the wind is so strong!

    It is fun to see the January 16th picture on my January 15th! Hope you are having a great Sunday despite the wind.

    It must be strange to see sunshine when you have snow too Michèle!

    It has snowed all day today and right now at midnight it is still snowing. Time for bed.

    Well, we had a wonderful sunny Sunday but tonight at 7:30 pm it is already -17 celsius and they are predicting -24 overnight, brrr.. If it is sunny it is cold! Plugged in the car tonight.

    What does it mean to plug in the car Michèle? Is that something to stop it freezing up in the radiator etc?
