When everything turns white!
Driving north from Indiana to Michigan during a ‘lovely’ spring day I got hit by a snow storm. Everything started beautifully with snowflakes touching the window, but after a couple of miles things went bad, and believe me when I say bad. The entire road got covered in about 12 inches of snow, the car started to slide and all of sudden I could not figure out what was road and what was the hard shoulder!
The moment a snowmobile passed over me made me realize something was wrong so I stopped in a Gas station and asked somebody if that was something I should not be doing. The answer was even worse. Two people told me I should not been driving that type of car in one of the worst snow storms they`ve even seen, however according to the weather channel things were not supposed to get any better for the next 2 days.
Long story short, after 6 hours (It was supposed to take 3) I finally arrived at the hotel safe and sound, and thankfully I could even record a short video of the adventure, not sure if is the scene or maybe the song from The Who rocking on the background but it looked very nice.

Advent Ideas
Christmas is a time for traditions. Most begin the festive season with an advent calendar. These vary from household to household so I have rounded up 5 different advent calendars if you fancy mixing things up from the most common chocolate advent calendar!

Merida – A city with a rich Roman heritage
Despite COVID and all its issues I was able to drive to the city of Merida in the region of Extremadura in Western Spain. It is about 400kn North West of Malaga not too far from the Portuguese border. I stayed in a hotel in the centre – the chain is well known for converting Convents and Castles into good hotels, they were fastidious about cleaning and social distancing. The food was good as well.
