Ice Castles

Ice Castles and Sculptures at Saskatooon's Farmers Market
So, who says ice castles are only for children!?

Sarah and I went down by the river to Saskatoon's Winter Festival to explore and see what this local event was all about. There was yes... an ICE CASTLE.. we may or not have been the only adults up there taking a million photos of frozen water along side the crazy kids running by and almost knocking us down to get to the ice slide!

 After exploring the ice castle we took a gander at the ice sculptures and attempted to play ice hunk curling. This is where you grab a ice hunk and hurl it down the ice trying to get it in the bulls-eye, yes that a technical curling term. Aimee may of won but some kid ran over her ice chunk before we had time to get out our tape measure!

A random Thursday turned into a Great Adventure! Recommended for all ages. A great Saskatoon adventure with local supporters! See YOU there next year!

Amazing!!!
