So close to 10 days in Copenhagen, DK and it was time to go back. During the last few days, we had heavy enough snow. Lots of pictures and I shared some with you. It is difficult to share too many pictures but may be I could share some on and off in some future posts. Anyways, we had farewell meeting at office and then it was time for packing. On return, we again had a stopover in Helsinki, Finland. Lots of snow to watch there and it was magical. It is another thing that life in actual snow and severe cold (-15 C or below) can be quite tough and only people living that place know it! One interesting (but trivial) thing occurred. I went to a shop within the Copenhagen airport to buy mineral water and bought sparkling water by mistake and realized it when I had gulped quite a bit! Well, some things we learn by experience only! Images : Shot on mobile and created collage out of them. One of the images is of the flight path.

I don't know hhow many times I've gone to buy shampoo but picked up conditioner instead. The containers are side by side and very similar looking. I try to be really careful nowadays.

I'm glad you had a good trip. I'm sure the snow was interesting. I've never had mineral water, so wouldn't know the difference.

@just4him Thanks for checking. It was a memorable trip. Dealing with snow and sub zero temperatures, that too with a feel like often below -10 C was a challenge but also a learning experience. How does one know about living in such places without a first hand experience? However, I believe if you had a train or flight journey, you would have purchased bottled water somewhere?
