Anny,

My mother has similar memories that were passed down to us. Riding in a
sleigh with her father up the steep hill from the train station (thinking
about how the horse would make it up the steep slippery hill), covered with
a warm blanket and the embrace of her father. Were you in the same sleigh?
These are the memories that made me fall in love with a city that I had
never been to.
