There are decorations and Christmas lights everywhere, very nice and it has always amazed me how well decorated the cities, villages and houses are here, a sight to behold.
But I just wanted something special.
Well, I did not find what I was looking for so far, but I did see a beautiful sight on one of my trips in the woods a couple of days ago. What made it special was the fact that when I left Skopje, it wasn't particularly cold for the season, around -2°, no snow, just an ordinary winter day.
However when I got above 500 meters altitude, I was surprised to see a rapid change in the weather and scenery. No snow, it had mostly melted the previous day as it was unusually warm and sunny.
But ice. And the higher I went, the more ice there was. It was absolutely beautiful, a frozen world like in the North Pole. All the vegetation was thick with ice, and I was surrounded by freezing fog. I loved it!
I was in the middle of thousands of naturally decorated Christmas trees, no need for lights or anything artificial. And it was very cold, so cold in fact that my camera worked for 30 seconds before the cold froze up the battery and it ceased functioning.
An amazing difference between the city and the surrounding mountains.
Didn't see anyone, not even Santa Claus.
But he will come, I know it!
Happy new year to everyone in the world
