It's time for Ottawa's Winterlude again and wouldn't you know it -- it's raining. Boo! How are people meant to build ice sculptures in this weather? I don't have plans to wander on the frozen canal myself but I imagine lots of people would enjoy the opportunity ... if only the ice stays. See Crystal Garden for photos of ice sculptures.
February 17, 2011 — Ottawa's Rideau Canal Skateway is closed due to a combination of warm temperatures and poor ice conditions ... The National Capital Commission made the announcement Wednesday (16th), stating that the skateway will remain closed until further notice.
