The Condescension Of The Clouds, Cambridge, United Kingdom, 4th Feb 2007

Not particularly very foggy, but my first such experience in Cambridge. (Jun Ming, who stayed over for a while during last vacation, recalled a day when visibility was less than two hundred metres.)

Your teachers tell you fog is created out of condensation, and they aren't wrong.

But it's really condescension. A cloud's way of saying, take that, you fools, we're more than just white and fluffy!

It really looked like that! My hand was (as) steady (as it could get)!

The Guildhall, just next to the market square, looking very much like a scene out of a Charles Dickens novel.
