We enjoyed sledding down the ice slide. Even Elena tried it with her scaredy cat mom and loved it. Poor gal was devastated when we had to drag her away. Thankfully there were other really cool activities and things for her to see so the tears didn't last long. We toured our way through the cabins where the actors showed us furs, played music for us, and even forged a tool in the fire. Later on we ate some pretty delicious food while listening to French Canadian music. Afterwards we just had to make maple syrup candy on the snow. Someone asked us if we were going to let the little one eat ALL that candy off the stick. Uh, maybe we should have rethought that....ach, it was tasty and it was the weekend!
If I could spend all of winter doing this, I think it wouldn't be such a hardship.

lovely! I have never been - can you believe that?! I've been skating on the river in January, though, so that makes me a true manitoban, doesn't it? ;) Looks like so much fun!
I've never been either...I can claim that I've only lived here a mere 12 years. But Ken's born and raised and he's never been either! Maybe next year...looks tres bon! :)
Makes me want to visit Canada in the winter... almost... ;)
