a dusting of snow for sunday

it was nice to wake to snow on the ground, though it wasn't very much!!

i think this is the third light dusting of snow we've had.

i took chanda uptown to a special concert at carnegie hall with the west eastern divan orchestra, comprised of youth from the middle east of egyptian, israeli, jordanian, palestinian, iranian, lebanese, syrian and spanish backgrounds. her school had free tickets for its students. she said it was an incredibly beautiful concert. they played two beethoven pieces.

on the way home, we passed central park on our way to the train.

 

here is the artisans' gate.

and here are the horses waiting to ferry tourists (or natives) through the park.
