All the paths leading to the old convent of Santa Cruz la Real were covered in snow. Such a beautiful scene. I get the impression that the weather this winter has been more severe than usual. There have already been several snowfalls, albeit not too heavy, which has meant that many Segovians – and IE University students – have been able to enjoy the snow for a few hours. The old folk here in Segovia say that a winter with a fair amount of snow always means that we’ll have a lovely spring.
