The Gathering

Posted by AJ Kassam (Ottawa, Canada) on 11 February 2007 in Lifestyle & Culture and Portfolio.

Yesterday we attended Jacques Cartier park in Gatineau, Quebec, which is the sight of the Snow Kingdom - the children's playground of winter, if you will. There are ice slides, snow mazes, food food food, entertainers, and a snow sculpting competition. All of Canada's provinces and territories (13 all inclusive) enter a team. This example here is British Columbia's entry (a sentimental favourite of mine ) To give you perspective, the average sized adult male would stand just as tall as the piano stool!! I'll try and find out who won and post the winner. :)
