Castle in the park

So Melody's brother arrived in town for a few days before leaving for Winnipeg. We drove down to a local park where they have been building a huge ice castle. This is a close-up of a section of it.
It will be around until the warm weather melts it. At night it is lit up with coloured lights that change colour to music. We will certainly be going back to have a closer look and get more pictures.
Have a Happy New Year all of our wonderful friends and here is to a great 2016

Wow. .. stupid question but did they build the whole thing or are they sculpting sections if it. This is pretty impressive. I come from a part of the world where there is no ice...
