The Ride

February 13, 2010 we went to the Quebec Winter Carnival.

Grace wanted to go on the giant toboggan run at the Chateau Frontenac.  So we did.

Here is a view from the top of the slide.  We are going to be next going down.  The sled on the right was ours.  We came in second.  It was really close.  Not that it was a competition.  They have gravel at the bottom to slow down and stop the toboggans.


You pay $2.00 per person for a ride.  As people come down you get a sled and drag it up to the top.  A long walk.  You walk along the run and you can see people coming down yelling  "I am going to die."  Not exactly encouraging.  I stayed calm but Grace yelled all the way down.

This is what it looks like from the bottom with people coming down.




It was great fun.  Here is a picture of the hotel.
