Summer is here and with it comes rain (in place of snow). Nuuk mothers are undaunted in their efforts to leave their babies sleeping outside in inclement conditions. I snapped a few photos of babies sleeping in the rain yesterday-- a continuation of my Babes in Nuuk series (if you missed my earlier post, "Babes on the Loose", you can read it here.)
I think this is the first baby I ever saw sleeping in a snowstorm (upon our arrival in early May). This week he slept contentedly in a light drizzle outside of Ken's office building. Note the mesh breathing hole.
Many of the staircases around town (and there are a lot of them) are outfitted with runners for the ubiquitous barnevogn.
Fashionable prints are also available for the barnevogn rain jacket.
A baby emerges from his breathing hole on the bus.
Chilly slumber outside the public library.
I was surprised to see this atypical jogging stroller outside of a home goods store downtown. But its (also atypical) clear cover gave me the perfect opportunity to prove to all of you that yes, there really is a baby in there.
