The shortest day of the year has passed!
Now, our days will start getting longer again....even if just by a minute or two each day at first. All that matters is we made it up the hill and now we can head back down it.
The few hours of sunlight we have here at this time of the year have been hidden behind low thick clouds and foggy days, which can really take a toll on a body that's not use to it (and even on those that ARE use to it).
These two pictures are taken at close to the brightest time of the day.
Stupid Clouds
This is our 3rd dark Danish Winter and has been by far the most difficult, so I am happy to know that we made it to the worst part of the year.
I can't imagine living up any further North than we are now. Especially in places with 24 hour darkness. I'm not certain I would survive that without becoming very depressed.

You poor things! After seeing the pictures, we can understand why you feel that way~~~~depressing, very depressing. May the coming days bring you lots of sunshine!
ok make it through this winter and then we can make it through next winter TOGETHER!!!
don't despair - it's rainy and grey here too in the rainforest of Canada's West Coast. Light some candles and get a poster of Hawaii !
I agree, 24 hours darkness would be incredibly difficult!! I am glad you guys are past the hump!
