Great theme huh?





Found everywhere in China and SE Asia.


Not sure which is more noteworthy. The ice mosque or the number of people standing in the freezing cold staring at ice mosques, lol.






 

There were lines for most of the ice slides.

Many different countries represented here. Note the dog sled ride.
















All of the walkways were covered with ice.





 Siberian Tiger Park

Tourist bus goes in and tigers roam free
Tiger watches as new bus enters park
The truck has live food for the tigers




Not certain I want this guy's job of tossing live chickens out the door o the truck
Looking for shade even while it is freezing outside

Young tigers roaming freely. Note condos in the background with only a fence separating tigers and people.












Lioness waiting for lunch delivery

Rest of the lion pride. They really weren't happy with the cold weather
Elevated walkway to view tigers from above
