change suddenly in a very short time. When we woke up at eight o蒺clock yesterday, it
was cloudy but dry. Ten minutes later it started to rain. At ten o蒺clock, it became
snowy, and it was freezing cold outside. Then at around 12

our visit to a temple, the snow stopped and the clouds became thick. In an hour the
temperature went up to over 20 degrees and it became sunny and warm! Later in the
afternoon it became even warmer and we had drinks at an open air tea鄄house in the
old town. At night after dinner when we wanted to take a taxi back to the hotel, it
suddenly was very cold again and it started raining at 6
