A/N: Written for the Globetrotter Drabble Competition II, One Million Words Added Competition, A Bit of Motivation Competition, and the If You Dare Continued challenge.
Prompt: Country 8, Argentina - Write about the winter season. Smithsonian Institute.
Winter Time Learning
"Y-You really mean it? You are not pulling my leg or anything?" Hermione asked with an excited squeal making her parents laugh at her antics. "Are we...really...I thought that when I started Hogwarts we stopped doing this sort of thing."
"Yes dear, we really are going to the Smithsonian Institute in America," Mrs. Granger said as she shot her daughter a smile over her shoulder from her spot in the front of the car. "Your father and I only cancelled last year's winter trip because we needed to save up money for this year's winter trip."
Unable to find the correct words Hermione settled for turning back to the car window and staring out at the snow. As she watched the soft small snowflakes fall to the ground in a graceful dance and people run about happily throwing snowballs at each other Hermione suddenly found herself happy that she had decided to come home for Christmas this year.
'I just love the winter season' Hermione thought happily as she mentally started planning what would learn and what sort of gifts she could find for Harry and Ron. 'I get to spend the winter holidays going to exciting places and learning so much. I think that winter is one of my favourite seasons because of this, I just wish that others could see the good side of winter as well as the bad side of winter.'
End of Drabble.
