Driving the snowscooter we found a piece of Thorne-river that
has not been frozen even though at this day is was minus 28!
Seems water current deep in the water is only 4 degrees C this water
travels up and down from bottom to surface and made this
small open water with damp coming from the water.

The Chandeliers!
Last year there were no chandelier..visitors kept asking for them thus the architect and designers decided to make even 4 of them to pup in the main lounge which is in the style of the thirties (charleston-time)
Here glass-fiber is put in the carefully drilled holes of the ice, held together
by putting a drop of water in the hole to freeze the glass fiber in the ice.

Ice can be cut by using sharp ice chisel made of hard steel or with electric-chainsaw.
We use electric ones because it has no exhaust smoke that stains on the white snow .

Wow Chiel, looks supercool (both literally and figuratively speaking :-) ).

Make sure to regularly warm up on booze and other people! ;-)

Big (warm) hug, Anne
