Ice Magic in Lake Louise

To those of us living in Calgary (for most if not all of our lives), winter means cold, snow, freezing temperatures, icy winds, melting snow, mud, dirt and a whole host of other ... shall we say 'less then pleasant' images that easily overshadow the serenity and fun we used to associate with this season. But to those visiting us from abroad, the 'ugly' side of winter is not so bleak.

This past weekend we went to see the ICE Magic sculptures in Lake Louise. The trip, however, ended up being more fun in the snow then looking at the sculptures.

Even though Ikumi wasn't exactly dressed to play in this much snow, that didn't stop her from getting snow all over her as she joined Ayako in 'snow diving'

luckily the nice people organizing the ice sculpture display, also provided the a place to get warm while taking in the sites

But nothing warms you up like a nice hot cup of cocoa (chocholate milk) in the Chateau
