Every year we all go on a trip together for a few days with everybody from Prisma IT. This year the trip is to Iceland. This is all of us having lunch at Schiphol airport before boarding.

So for the next two days we will all be out of office. Well, not really all of us, Richard is staying in the Netherlands to answer the phone …

I am currently in the UK for a LiveCycle training and when I looked out of my hotel window the view was very nice.

Then just before I was going for breakfast my boss called and asked whether I still was in the hotel. Then he told me to “Go make snow dolls”. Apparently the snow is a bit more then the people in the UK are used to and is causing major travel issues. The students are from all over the country (apparently some had to drive 4 hours under normal conditions), and due to the weather the first day of the training is canceled. So now I have my first snow day ever! (In the Netherlands we only have ice days to go ice-skating, when it has frozen enough and the ice is thick enough, but no snow days.)

UPDATE: training cancelled for the whole week based on the weather forecast, but no way to go home since all flights to Amsterdam have been cancelled at Heathrow.
