Canmore Winter Carnival

In February it was the Canmore winter Carnival and the town imported snow to Main street for a week of dog sled competitions, cross country ski competitions and lots of winter fun. We started off  by warming up at the  ice coffee bar.

Then we sauntered around to look at the ice carving competition.

Enjoyed warm waffles while we waited.

And then the kids enjoyed an alternative mode of getting around Main street on skis.

And of course as I mentioned before about Finlay's love off hockey....he found a stick and a ball and enjoyed a game of road hockey....Oohhh dear!!!

 

The Winter Carnival ended with a town party on the pond where we skated to music , tried some maple syrup ice pops and hot chocolate and Heather and Finlay enjoyed climbing in the snow fort.

Our weekend finished with more snow fall and then a hunt for snow fairies.
