Saturday at the Park

Last Saturday I went to the park for a walk, it had been snowing all night before and all city was dressed in white. It was very cold and in the park even the lakes were partially frozen. I took my camera and after I took this first photo to this sign were it says that is forbidden to dive I saw a woman jumping to the cold water, her dog had been running after ducks over the frozen lake but he end up falling in to the water, in a instinctive move the owner of the dog jumped in to the lake swimming and breaking the ice to safe the dog from the cold water but she almost drown herself in the lake struggling to get into the opposite margin , mean while the dog swim and climb over again and safe himself. Everything end up just with a woman and a dog all wet. I continue our walking in the park and it was really beautiful. In this park there is this big yellow mansion that it use to be the house of the Danish Queen and that serves now as house to the Queen Guards. Everyone but specially kids were enjoying the snow and doing some skying.
