Description Another great thing I've experienced in 2016 (also after Christmas)!
There's this exhibition called "ICE!" that is put up every year for... well, I don't know since when. But it truly is a spectacle to see! Everything in each room of the exhibition is made of REAL ICE! And then painted and lit up with blue lights to stand out.

Well, not everything. Certain support props like pipes and such are added to support the heavier ice sculptures. But yes, pretty much everything, from the walls, to tunnels, to the characters, objects, etc., are made out of ice. They almost look like popsicles. I wish I could visit this place more often each year. I really do enjoy what they do with these ice sculptures every year. Especially where you get to slide down slides made out of ice!
And as usual, they close out every ICE! attraction with the famous Nativity scene.

The last time I've been to this attraction was in 2012. I've only visited this place about three times at the time. This is my fourth time visiting it. My dad surprised me by winning tickets to this place without paying a thing. That was my Christmas present right there!
And this year's theme was Santa Claus is Coming To Town, based on the Rankin Bass animated special.
(I'm just waiting for when they do something based on Disney's Frozen )

Hey, I went to one of these things once, but it certainly wasn't Rankin/Bass themed! That's awesome. And funny, the last time I went was in 2012.
