Last Saturday was a perfect day for outdoor play, so Terry and I - and our youngest son's family - headed over to Jacques Cartier Park, across the river in Gatineau, Quebec, to the children's ice park that was built there for Ottawa's annual winter festival - Winterlude.
The big attraction was the tube ride down the ice slides. It was free... But wait time in line was an hour and a half!
As a few of us held our group's place in line and waited, a few wandered off.
Our granddaughter enjoyed a ride down the zip line (above) while grandpa and her dad threw soft snowballs at her!
I don't know how she mustered the courage! The structure to get up to the zip line was an obstacle course as well! At the top level (above) she is crossing a swinging canoe!
Grandpa checked out the maze and ground level obstacle course... And we all enjoyed watching (and at times participating in) impromptu tug-of-wars.
Our grandson watched ... then tried "snow climbing."
The weather was perfect for an outdoor winter "play day"!
Fun for everyone!
