ICE! And Snow! In Florida?

We went to Gaylord Palms Resort for the day the Monday before Christmas. They had so many fun and festive things to do. The weather has been on the warm side all season long and I was ready for some "snow" to get us the the Christmas spirit. the resort is very nice even without the Holiday stuff and we had a ball!


This is in ICE!  This year they called it "Shrek the Halls" and it featured all the characters made of ice. It was beautiful and a chilly 8 degrees!


This is an amazing and huge dragon that filled an entire room. It too was made of ice.


An ice sculpture of an angel. See the candelabras? Also ice!

Entire ice Nativity. Stunning

Then next door, (for an additional fee, of course) there was SNOW!  Leah loved this one the best.

We got to make snow balls and through them at this troll thing they had. It was the only place you were allowed to through snowballs.



Perfect throw! Looks like we have another lefty pitcher in our family!

This is the creature they were aiming at

Going down the slide. ICE had a slide too made of ice, but she didn't like that one. It was in the beginning of the experience and she was still a afraid.

Playing in the snow!


Closest thing to a picture with Santa we are going to get this year.

Now THAT looks like fun! We need to try that some time. I think the Gaylord in Nashville might be closer for us - thanks for sharing these pictures. It looks like you had a great time.
