I'll dig them out and post them. Snow probably isn't as awe-inspiring in the US as it is here, but we kept on pulling off the road and throwing snowballs and building snowmen on the car bonnet. When I was in Europe back in 2006 and my daughter and I had a snowball fight in the carpark of the Prague Hilton, I found out quickly that Australians attitude towards snow is seen as rather infantile by others.
