Winter on the Way (?)

 

A photo from the City Park on Friday last week (6th November) - to illustrate that most  trees here have dropped most of their leaves to the ground now.

 

Having had a double vaccination against flu + pneumococci on Wednesday, I decided to spend most of Thursday at home resting; but as I had no bad reaction to either (only a bit sore at the injection spots), and Friday started out sunny, I then called my hairdresser in the morning and asked if she could fit me in during the day. She could, around noon; and the photo above was snapped on my way into town for that. 

 

The temperature has dropped to somewhat more wintry as well (not yet frosty in the daytime, but some traffic warnings issued for nights/early mornings). So time to start wearing my new winter coat... (The photo below taken looking into the big mirror in the lift/elevator in my building, a couple of weeks earlier - one day when we had a more temporary drop in temperature. I looked just the same on Friday, except my hair sticking out from under my hat then a little bit shorter, on the way back...)
