Some Illuminate Yaletown ice sculptures, a fun winter event that was eliminated after Vancouver had the Olympics.
There was a lot of complaining about cold hands after this photo was taken!

Did you say they stopped do no this? How sad! Beautiful images. Thanks for jo Ning the challenge!
Stopped doing this (autocorrect–how I hate you carp)
It’s funny how autocorrect never works when you want to use a word but you’re not sure of the spelling, but it always manages to scramble the small words — I assume you meant: ‘Autocorrect – how I hate your crap!’ Or were you just carping about autocorrect?
Both. 😀
Yes, the Illuminate Yaletown was set up as a winterfest just before we held the Olympics and managed to limp on for two more years without funding, getting smaller and smaller until it just disappeared. It was lots of fun while it lasted though!
