Mnnhh...
Åmal-Cam still offline.

It's back, but it's only 04:15 in Åmål on another freezing cold morning.

No one is moving at this hour but the place looks beautiful with it's coating of snow reflecting all the Christmas lights.

The mind wobbles doesn't it?

Special Happy New Year Snapsie.

...New year in Amal and its totally dead...

Looks like a "still life" at 03:45 Åmål time, but very pretty with the lights on the snow and all.

Happy New Year snapsie. Good to see you posting again.

[bruno]

River is the only thing moving in a frozen world right now.

Midday Tuesday.
Beautiful, clear, sun shiny kind of day. Apart from most things on the ground being in shadow.
Plenty of cars and people moving around, but it looks soooo cold. The snow looks like it'll be there forever.

The really good thing is that I can't see that empty drink bottle anymore.

10:00
Sun very low in the sky hitting a few people with shafts of light.
Everything has a blanket of snow.
It looks like it's been sub-zero for ages, unlike here where it's in the 40's and set to last for another few days.

At least in Åmål it looks beautiful whereas in Fucking Ådelåide it just looks dry and baked.

10:00 Tues. and there's a guy lurking around on the path behind the flagpoles. Maybe he's thinking of writing his name in the snow.

Oh no, he's just gabbing away on his mobile phone.
Maybe it's Markus.

Uhm, festivities are gone, but they forgot to remove the christmas lights.
Shold we call and point to that?

[fish]

SHHH!
Don't remind them.
With the amount of daylight at the moment those lights are about the only brightness there is.

No people around of course, not at 01:00. But with the lights on at least you can see where they've been.

Åmål cam is asleep again. When I said it was among the best of the webcams because it updates every second or so I meant to also say "when it's w*rking".

8.30 am CET. still out of action. As its covered in snow just hold up a blank piece of white paper in front of your nose. It looks about the same.
