I can't lie, we were a little disappointed with the 'festival' but we still had a good day. We detoured past the completed sculpture park to see the completed statues on the way to the tourist off ice. On the way we passed a children's playground made of ice and snow. Of course we got involved!
We snaked through the frozen maze. Created with giant slabs of ice and snow. Then went around the giant igloo and I even muscled my way onto the ice slide. Skidding down on my back, legs akimbo. I nearly took out the small wall at the bottom!
Unfortunatly we missed the sculpture award ceremony. Our welsh friends won artists choice, which they were very happy with. After we congratulated them we snuck into the back of the cinema and watched the second half of the film Wall -E in Swedish. We also had a little slip on the ice. mum bumped her head and bottom. No harm done.
After a trip around the town halls art gallery we settled in for a night in. Half way through our terrible movie mum spied a little light out the window.
THE LIGHTS! THE LIGHTS! Quick as a flash we were dressed and wrapped up warm trudging through the dark woods in a nearby park.
Unfortunatly, by the time we got outside the show was over. So in we went ready to start our real arctic adventure in the morning!
