Christmas in Portland

After coming back from Japan, I stayed in Portland for a whole month doing a lot of training. The most amazing thing that happened during the Month of December was the snow. The arctic storm came from Alaska and it started snowing a week before Christmas and wouldn't stop. It became so annoying becuase it was hard t0 drive and the dirt was everywhere.
At night the temperature would drop and everything would freeze, during the day everything would melt and turn into a massive flood.
I couldnt make it to the practice a few times because of intense snow fall. I started hating it after a few days and felt like going somewhere warm.

I planned on going to Canada to see my brother and his family but the last minute I decided to go play a tournament in the southern hemisphere. I flew to New Caledonia on the New Year's Eve to arrive there on the 2nd of January. I lost 19 hours in the process. The snow and cold weather were left behing.
