Harbin Ice Festival

Dick's niece, Margaret, is a pilot with United Airlines. She flies international flights and sees some wondrous sites. Margaret says as she flies over Harbin en route to Beijing she sees what the ice artists produce in the "sea of white" (snow) from the cockpit. I enjoyed the Power Point presentation she sent to us so much that I wanted to share some of the pictures with my blog buddies. Can you believe that this "Chinese Disneyland" is created from ice and colored lights? Other than the ice, there are no supporting structures.
