Skating in a winter wonderland.

 

Winter has officially arrived in Brisbane, not that you can reaaaally tell. I mean, don’t get me wrong, it does get cold at a bone chilling 15 degrees, but with no snow on the horizon it’s pretty mild in my books. 

Look who we found, our homeboy the deer!

So what does one do to get in the spirit of old man winter, you might ask? ...You simply set up a skating rink in the middle of the city and pretend to be in winter wonderland!

Yep, that’s exactly what went on at the Alpine Winter Festival this weekend. Luckily for Dave and I we’ve been having lots of Canadian treats that remind us of the motherland lately. From watching the Stanley Cup playoffs at the pub, to a night out on the skating rink, we are enjoying these slices of home!

Here are some snaps of us on the rink...note the plastic neon orange rental skates...stellar!!

We have been really enjoying our looong weekend here in Bris, God bless the Queen and the day of her birth! (...although it does make me wonder which queen it is that we are celebrating with a day off of work?)

What have you been up to lovelies?
