Heavenly choir!

The first snow finally melted, but about 10 days before Christmas, the second snow came. It started at the same time that Shun, Mum and I were waiting in a very long queue to enter St. Paul's Cathedral (big, beautiful London church) for a Christmas carol concert. Very VERY COLD!!!! So cold that my Mum put her scarf on her head (I have never seen her do this before - she looked like a slightly stylish grandma from a fairy tale.)We stood in the queue for about 30 minutes, the snow falling all around us. Just when we thought we might become ill from cold, just when we thought a nice glass of red wine in a nearby pub might be a better idea, the Cathedral stewards told us we could enter! Inside the cathedral was almost as cold as outside the cathedral, but it was a beautiful concert, with a boys' choir and an orchestra, and we could sing our favourite carols and soak up the Christmas atmosphere. Afterwards we had a delicious pizza and the long-awaited red wine. Lovely (but freezing).
