Had it been only 1 week later, we would have had a true White Christmas in Palestine this year. Snow is not very common in Palestine, at least in the quantities we’ve seen last week! Usually the ground barely gets white and the next day its business as usual. We’ve been home for 5 days now and it looks like we need 1 or 2 more for roads to be clear enough for people to go to work and move around with reasonable ease.
With a lot of electricity failures, it was a good time to gather around the fire and enjoy some family time…
