Second Snowfall 2013 at Paro

These are random collections during second snowfall at Paro. We had no air traffic (landing or take-off) at Paro International Airport for two days. It was huge blow for Drukair and other aviation companies around operating with similar conditions. Drukair had tough time bringing back the schedule to normal. 

Farmers welcomed the heaven's pouring with much relief and office goers embraced the off-days with much joy. But, the stranded passengers had equal amount vexation as the joy for others. It was more of nuisance than pleasure to them.  They definitely have missed the joy, the beauty and the calmness of nature's coating. 
As brought up in the 'agri-farming ' culture, it was relieving for me as well, especially considering the bonanza of harvests rendered by snowfall at this time of the year. Tashi Delek to all farmers.
