Throwback to our New England trip during the holidays in December 2015. My husband and I had a wonderful and super relaxed Christmas in Portland, Maine. We stayed together with our friends at their house for a couple of days and celebrated a traditional American Christmas with lots of food, great conversations and tons of cookies. Unfortunately there was no snow. The temperatures where in their mid 60’s and there was – not even a small sign – of snow. The Christmas walk at the beach was amazing but felt more like a walk during fall. Nevertheless we had left Maine with full stomaches and happy hearts and drove through New Hampshire to Burlington in Vermont. We wanted to spend a few more days in this beautiful area and couldn’t leave New England without a few snow pics, right? Our first stop was at the famous Omni Mount Washington Resort in Bretton Woods, NH. Such a majestic place in between the mountains and surround by two golf courses. It was just a quick stop to soak all the magical moments in.
