Isaac BakerWhat makes a truly beautiful winter night isn't the cold, it's not the colourful lights, or even the snow. It's the stillness. The tender quiet that we are all so unfamiliar with in our lives; this novel peacefulness that we find to be so unlike what we associate with winter, with cold, or with modern life - there's this still quiet on these nights that feels oddly warm like a blanket and all you can do is stare with gratitude for the gift that is another moment.<br> <br> December 26, 2024, Saint John, New Brunswick <br> <br> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Canada?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Canada</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/nature?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#nature</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/SaintJohn?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SaintJohn</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/NewBrunswick?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#NewBrunswick</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/winter?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#winter</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/snow?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#snow</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/SJ?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SJ</a>

lars' transport world<p>From Stockholm C to Malmö C, <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/SJ" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SJ</span></a> 's Snabbtåg as usual. This time with a delay of 55-65 minutes because the train set had to be exchanged.

What I do like: I love the idea of travelling this far north on these long old-fashioned trains. The wooden elements in the compartment create a cosy atmosphere. <br>You can lock your compartment from the outside, which is great for a visit to the bistro.
