Not at all cold

Its not all cold here in Minneapolis. The picture below of the Mississippi frozen over is a bit misleading given how hot it is at the moment.


And this picture of me going tubing (sliding down the side of a hill in a rubber ring) is the sort of thing you can do pretty much whatever the weather.Last week it was zero degrees when I cycled in. Which wouldn't be too bad if it were in Centigrade - but it isn't.

Margaret, Martin and Jon have arrived so they're getting a taste of proper cold, they've been out to buy warm weather gear and John and I went tubing last night for a couple of hours and didn't get too cold. More updates soon.
