Brrr… It's a little cold out there. No snow though. We don't get much snow
here, but some places get a lot of it.

Snow can be pretty, but it can also cause problems!

In Denmark recently, some customers were doing some shopping when heavy snow
trapped them and staff inside a couple of stores all night!
最近在丹麥，有一些顧客跟員工被大雪困在兩家店裡一整晚！

Luckily, they were pretty good stores to get stuck in! One was a furniture
store, and the other was a toy store!
好險那兩家店一家賣傢俱，另一家賣玩具。

Those in the furniture store could sleep in any bed they wanted! And getting
trapped in a toy store could be pretty fun!
被困在傢俱店的人愛睡哪一張床都可以，另外，被困在玩具店應該也很有趣！

In England, a similar thing happened! The snow there trapped customers in a
pub!
在英國，有人因為大雪被困在酒館！

The pub had a band to play music, they had quizzes and movies, and of course
food and drink, too!
酒館裡有現場樂團、還可以看電影、吃吃喝喝！

They were stuck for three days! But they had a pretty good time! One lady
said she didn't want to leave!
他們在那裡待了三天，但是過得很開心！

Nobody wants to be stuck anywhere, but being stuck in a furniture store, a
toy store, or a pub is not too bad, right?
