Quebec Winter Carnival
Quebec Winter Carnival
February in Quebec is winter carnival time and whilst the heat may be missing there's plenty of the white stuff, and it's used to create a Carnival celebration like no other.
For two and half weeks Quebec whoops it up winter-style with events ranging from dogsled racing and sled rafting to snow sculpting and outdoor dance parties. And whilst there may be no leggy Amazonian beauties scantily clad in strategically placed sequins name another carnival celebration where you can enjoy snow baths and arctic spas. Can't, didn't think so!

Article Title: Carnaval! Quebec City's Frozen February Frolics
I'm sitting in a small cafe just off the Place Royale in Old Quebec sipping delicious cafe au lait and munching on a flaky croissant as snowflakes settle gently on the gathered snow mounds outside the door. The sub-freezing air outside frosts the cafe window and the wind blows in crisp gusts. Giant icicles hang from the eaves of centuries-old buildings along the narrow street. It's February--Carnaval time in Quebec.
The dancing Bonhomie was my first introduction to the Quebec Winter Carnival, a blow out of fun, food and entertainment in the midst of the city's cold winter days. Held in the first part of February, it a fun way Quebecers outwit the harshness of winter, transforming the city into one massive outdoor party.
