Imagine a 14,000 square foot structure, kept at 9 degrees, filled with two million pounds of hand-carved ICE! The ice will be carved into magical life-sized holiday monuments and sculptures by artisans from Harbin China.
That was taken from the Gaylord's website. And they were right about the temperature...it was cold!
They gave us these parkas to keep warm, and they worked pretty well. Jackson got the smallest size they had, but I think it could have fit me. He looked cute dragging around in it, though.
Noah got to stay in his stroller wrapped under a special blanket. I think he was the warmest of us, by far.
We wandered from room to room admiring the sculptures.
That entire sled was made of ice, except for the cushions, thankfully.
Here is an entire ice bridge covered with just a rug for traction.
An ice nativity.
In one large room were four huge ice slides which Brad and Jackson tried out.
I didn't think Jackson would like going down directly on the cold surface, but he kept climbing back up for more.
It was so beautiful. I'm thinking we're going to make this an annual family tradition.
