My friends sister has just got married in an ice hotel.

I wonder if they have ice sculptures?

We went on a drive today,(OK it was to the dentist and we couldn't get there yesterday because of the snow), and saw many snowmen but one particular snow creation almost made me crash the car; it wasn't a snowman, it was the bits that are usually left off when building a snowman.......................and it was around 4' high and as far as I could tell, perfectly formed.

I'm sure you can guess the missing bits Jaczs! There were 3. (Note the plural).

PS The countryside was very pretty with all the snow.

Hmmmmmm wonder how many snowballs it took to build

[wolfie]

Only two large ones................ the rest was pure imagination!

Groupon recently had a fantastic deal where you stayed ina normal hotel for 2 nights and got the third night in an ice hotel (super warm sleeping bag provided). I was tempted but it did not include transfers (or flights) and the hotel was something like 160km from the airport.
