Some of my family were able to go to England for Christmas this year. It was a new experience being there in the winter, because usually we visit in the summer or springtime. We had a good trip there and were able to see some of Mum's childhood school-friends and spend time with our Grandma, cousins, uncle and aunt.

How is there green grass in December? I guess because of all the rain. In Oklahoma we had dry, brown grass.

Dartmoor National Park. We saw some snow there, a rare occurrence in the south of England.
I saw this after a nice walk in Grandma's neighborhood.

It was about the same temperature as in Oklahoma this time of year, except for the rain.
