Living in this historical place where Napoleon lost his battle, I wanted to see how the Lion looks like when it has snowed (which doesn't happen very often in Belgium)
The lion hill in white
too cold for a picnic
views over the battle fields
in our street it's getting dirty,
the snow melts. We just had one week of snow.
Lovely photos of such a historical place. The snow gives everything such a nice, pristine look. Thanks for sharing.

I wonder what Napoleon would have thought of the snow...
