It must have snowed about twice in October and then twice in November and we had  milder temperatures which was great. But today’s snow dump  caused a huge traffic chaos all the way. There was so much snow  that made travelling and walking  an adventure.

But where are the snow plowers? I didn’t see one.

If this was Halifax they would have cleaned the main streets  rightaway.

It is an early snow this time being in Edmonton. It snowed all day and indicated that winter is here.

The fall season was very short and looks like it is going to be a long winter

Hoping for a early spring.

On the other side my friends in Halifax are still enjoying a nice weather.

This is my first visit to the Muttart, which is one of  Edmonton’s  horticultural attractions. I guess it was closed for renovation last year and they opened it today.

Some pictures from the Muttart .

Enjoy

I guess  this Utsavam takes place each year during the month of  June .This is my first time watching this event.It was nice to see the procession of lord Ganesha and goddess Rajarajeswary.

The Utsavam is from June 20 to June 30,2009.  Do visit the temple if  you get a chance to know more about this festival.

It’s great to be home  for Tamil Newyear and be away from the cold winter in Canada.

Happy Tamil Newyear to my friends and family.

But the weather in Chennai is  hot  +35Degree C and the humidity is high.
