Slacks for Ella Funt

We’re leaving for our trip to Quebec in a little over a week. We’re going to be in town for their Winter Carnaval, and then spend a few nights just outside of town, where we’ll dogsled and spend a night in the Ice Hotel.
We’ve been busy buying winter gear—new hats, snow boots, and lots of long underwear. We should be all prepared, though I’m not sure anyone will be able to recognize us in our photos—we’ll be so bundled up. We’ve also been soliciting recommendations from friends who have been there and the wannabe Canadians from E’s hockey league. I even made a map of all the restuarants and bars that were recommended to us.
We were a little nervous that the warm winter we’ve been having in the northeast would mean that Winter Carnaval wouldn’t be cold, but their weather lately has been pretty steady in the single digits. Still well warmed than normal (a friend told us that when she went, it was -40°F/-40°C), but plenty cold enough for snow. I think we’ll be ok with it being in the positive degrees, but we’d be very disappointed if there wasn’t snow. Also, sleeping in the Ice Hotel might be difficult if it was above freezing.
