Walking like a penguin

It is such an effort to take a stroll, I have to totally concentrate on walking....not allowing idle thoughts to distract me from the job in hand.  The weather is mild around +5, the snow is melting

 

but the roads are still covered in ice.  


Walking takes such an effort of concentration, even with my spikes on. The ice is melting slowly

 

but I think the temperature drops during the night and re freezes everything, therefore the roads and paths are like a skating rink...albeit a bit bumpy. 



 Having to concentrate on walking is not something I ever did in Australia, unless it was way back when I was just learning.  

But now I walk like this...
