Pictures from Harbin aka Frozen Tundra

Again not much to say but lots of photos!
We're as close to the north pole as I ever hope to be too! It's been dropping down to about -65F actual temperature each night, warming up to maybe 12F during the day. I wouldn't have thought so, but you can feel the difference. We had a fine Christmas dinner of fish, spinach, vegetable soup, and pepper beef at "Large Marge's". We decided to go back there because it's good and conveniently located!
Now here's some photos of the winter scenery from Christmas night, enjoy!





Talk about your Chilly Willy!
Who's cold?
Cheers to a Christmas to remember!

*Lightnin's footnote:
Last year Minnesartica this year Siberia? If we don't go to Florida next Christmas just put us in a padded room! We ain't doin' cold again!

Dude - I think that's still off, but who cares it's still way too freaking cold!

JaF - We took a gondola ride across the frozen river today and saw it from the air. It's more of a snow carving than an ice sculpture.
