Nora had unraveled her scarf from around her neck and had set it beside her, as well as removed her warmers and shrugged the coat off. She gave the boy all of her attention, waving back as he did. "Hi Ted," she said, leaning forward and propping her elbows on her knees. "My name's Nora." He didn't really ask if she wasn't from around here. Ted stated it and it made her smile.

"Is it that obvious?" she asked and laughed a little. "No, I'm not. Just passing through, really. I'm sort of...on holiday. So I guess that makes me a tourist. My friend told me I had to try your cocoa, so here I am. And now I'm experiencing my first snow storm. It's a bit exciting." Nora smiled and peered at the boy. "So, Ted. what about you? I'm guessing that [i]you[/i] are from around here." She rested her chin on the heel of her hand. "And it's not your first snow storm, either."
