Hope!

Spring seems to be a dream that's not quite attainable at the moment.

I guess you could say it appears almost impossible with the relentless torrential rain, gale force winds and at times, like the three degrees of this morning, cold temperatures.

But, it is coming! Already there is dusk instead of darkness at five in the afternoon. Already hope is stirring at the edges of the day, as this sunrise reminded me on my way to school this morning.

We won't linger on the cold, fog filled, rain soaked and wind battered walk I had this evening! :-P

Race Across the World returns to BBC One tonight. Oh how I love it, and long to be part of it!
