BON SOO WINTER CARNIVAL: THEY ARE COMING FOR YOU!

Today, in Sault Ste. Marie it was cloudy with a few flurries. The temperature was 2.1 °C, which was perfect for our day at the Bon Soo Winter Carnival. The winter playground had hay wagon rides, snow shoeing, snow canoeing, dog sled rides, snow sculptures, polar bear dips and of course the famous bum slides. We spent the day sliding on our butts! It was pretty fun with so many twists and turns and for ten minutes I thought I was upside down! Later we built some snow sculptures of Leonard kicking Sheldon down the stairs!


THE FAMOUS BUM SLIDES: WE'RE IN EQYPT!

We went to Gigi’s Bistro and Pizzeria for dinner. As soon as we walked into this little Italian bistro we immediately felt at home. The servers were so friendly and the food was great. Our whole meal including appetizers and the main course was under $25 each. Even though the bruschetta bread and supreme nachos sounded delicious, I decided to start with 10 medium chicken wings for $8.95 and Leonard had the Caprese Salad with tomatoes, bocconcini, roasted red peppers, red onions and balsamic vinaigrette for $8.95. Then from several choices of pastas and pizzas I picked the small Gigi Deluxe Pizza with pepperoni, mushrooms, green pepper and mozzerella cheese for $12.95 and Leonard picked the Margherita Pizza with a blend of brick and mozzerella cheese and tomato sauce for $9.95. To drink, I had a diet coke for $2.50 and my friend had a cappuccino for $3.95. Leonard had to take his lactase pills because he is lactose intolerant!

We stayed at the Delta Sault Ste. Marie Waterfront Hotel. For $202.27 including all taxes we enjoyed a Deluxe room with two queen beds and a great view of St. Mary’s River,a desk, an ipod docking clock radio, a heated bathroom floor, a fridge, high-speed internet service and most importantly a 32” flat screen TV.
