Portuguese snow -- not the same thing as snow in Portugal. Here is my 5001 with the first significant snowfall of the season (with Lake Geneva in the background). Sorry for the iPhone photo but no time today for more involved photography.

David nice picture ! I suggest you don't expose the portuguese to such extreme climate in future. Come January you may acquire an Ingenieur for such occasion. I am sure you will have ample choice :-))

David,
The sky looks almost as dark as the dial. It's 75 here today. Had to put on my mittens to look at this pic.
Please be extra careful putting that 5001 on the ledge. Looks like a bit of a drop. Wouldn't attempt that here as we never know when the next quake will come.
And I sure was in need of that refreshing vista, you can't imagine how hot and humid the weather is here now.
Thanks for sharing!

Nice view! Both the 5001 and Lake Geneva, what more could you ask for.

One can't ask for too much more. Maybe a really good beer. And a blue PPC. :)
Thanks for the comments guys. Oh, Vishal, don't worry - the 5001 was in the cold no longer than necessary for the shot.
Here's the view without watches or clouds in the way.
Best regards,

David
