It's SNOWING, it's SNOWING...

That is what I yelled yesterday when I looked out my window and saw those frosty flakes.  The girls that sit outside of my office started snickering and giggling, so I'll need to investigate what "SNOWING" means in Mandarin.

View of the traditional Shanghai homes with SNOW on their roofs!

We got about an inch or so of snow, and it was snowing when I got on the plane Friday morning for Melbourne. 

Admittedly (and thankfully) Shanghai didn't get the Nor'easter that Boston did, but we got something!  Hope everyone up there still has power and have made a few snow angels!

ps - when I arrived in Melbourne on Saturday morning, it was 90 degrees!
