"ICE"

The Gaylord resort flies 40 artists from China to Texas to create the ice sculptures. It takes about 2 months to make them, and they start with 2 million pounds of ice and then chip away half of it. Some of it is clear and some is colored. They give everyone a parka to wear in the exhibit, as they keep it at 9 degrees-but it was 6 degrees when we were in there. I had a little difficulty with the camera-it would go black after each picture. I had to put it up my sleeve to warm it up in between. It was kind of pricey, but truly amazing and worth the money!!!



The details on the children were amazing!



A room full of ornaments.

Even a gingerbread house.
