Maybe it is because I grew up in the Midwest (with 4 definite seasons), but I like winter. I really do. It is calm, peaceful, cozy & reflective. So it is no surprise that I had a different perspective when it came to our recent visit to an ice hotel. It really was the beauty of all things winter. Sculpted, carved, illuminated...it was breathtaking.
The hotel uses no metal or wood structures, it is all packed snow. With tables, chairs, glasses even chandeliers carved from special reverse-osmosis ice shipped in from Montreal, the organic combination of hydrogen & oxygen collide into art.
In anytime of day, the hotel just glowed.
I'll be sharing more about our overnight stay & the rest of our trip to Quebec City, but I thought your Friday needed some winter beauty. Click on each image for a more detailed view.

So Beautiful! Thanks for sharing Beth!
So cool! I enjoy winter as well. It's a great time to take it easy and sit on the couch without feeling too badly about it, and the snow is really quite pretty.
This ice hotel looks amazing! I'm definitely adding it to my vacation list. :)
PS: The new blog look is fantastic.
