Just when I came round to take my first selfie what do I read in the news?

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Kremlin is starting to ban public selfies. They have created a whole bunch of pictos to enforce / demonstrate this.

 

OK it is aimed at dangerous situations but there is a general one as well.

So one wonders when this will be adopted by the Galician Xunta

 

 

 

It would look like this on the scarcely available tourist maps / guides.

No selfies in Galicia

Who is painting the morning Sky? Wer malt denn da am Himmel ?

Good morning !

On these brilliant frosty morning skies the painting of trails is very prominent.

Have you ever wondered where the contrails or vapor trails are leading to ? or where they from ?

NATS national air traffic control of the UK have made a great visualization of a days flight movements here in Europe.

 

Just click on the picture which is a link to the NATS video. Incredible.

Another reason why we live in Galicia and not in south UK, Frankfurt or Amsterdam.

No, the swirls are no indication of nice contrails they indicate potential morning mist. Maybe due to the lack of many of these vapor trails do we have these nice temperature differences of 20C in just 10 hours or so. Enjoy it will only get hotter!!

 

 

 

The frost just – lifted the contrail dissipate – no excuse to linger – off into the wild (garden)-

Till next time.

It should be an event that puts us on the map and the weather prediction is perfect.

Just hope there is no serious fire nearby.

 

Should be a day to enjoy.
