Ice Sculptures at Park Pobedy (Victory Park) January 2017

Ice Sculptures: Victory Park
It says "50 year victory"

Cool sculpture

Matryoshka doll sculpture - cute!


loosely translated as "here starts Russia" - with bears - too bad the sculptures were covered in so much snow, but it was a beautiful, mild night. We missed the Christmas decorations by 1 day.

Nice pose love...

Monkey in a barrel

Naturally, when I saw this Kremlin slide, I had to try it

Craig discovered a new setting on the camera that takes snapshots of action... if I had my own little saucer I`d have gone MUCH faster, but I came unprepared. I wanted to borrow one, but didn`t do it.
Here I go!

It went pretty fast for just on my butt!

Waving to my biggest fan! lol

Trying to stay upright as I wave
Good thing I didn't have a saucer because that is a kid crashing into the bean bags at the end to slow him down on his saucer! The slide was free with your admission ticket of 350 Rubles per person


My little ice angel

I`m from Canada... I had to pose in the igloo! Above me it says "se novum godum" meaning "Happy New Year"! Literally translated I think it says "with new year"

Posing on my ice throne proved a little difficult... Craig captured my expression as I started to slide off.

And then I composed myself! lol

Craig was supposed to pose on the unicorn, but he couldn`t lift his inflexible leg high enough, so up I went... bad idea. The heat from my body melted the ice (thus the reason for the hole I guess - from previous posers) and my pants were therefore wet on the way home - yuck!
It was a lovely evening out with my hubby.
How many workers does it take to clear the ice off the street in front of the Oligarch's place? Definition of Oligarch - a person who belongs to a small group of people who govern or control a country, business, etc.
