Harbin's Ice and Snow World 2012

Last night, I finally had the experience of seeing my city's International Ice and Snow Sculpture Festival.  And yes, it is absolutely spectacular.  If I could picture a place where Queen Frostine lived outside of Candy Land, this would be it.  A true winter wonderland complete with horse-drawn carriages, glittering ice-skating snowflakes, glass-like castles, and slippery slides.
