Winter in My Hometown

I lived in Shenyang before I came to Australia. Shenyang locates in the north east of China. It is extremely cold in winter. I had got used to the heavy snows. In the rural areas, people usually do not have to work for months in winter. They stay at home all day and do nothing. It is quite boring. However, children are happy because they can make snowman in the courtyard and play games.
