[06:03.18]riding in horse carriages and listening to the music all day.
[06:07.75]Our feet are freezing and our noses are red.

[06:18.36]hundreds of thousands of people come to Quebec
[06:21.88]to take part in a week of activities.
[06:25.36]If you come,you must be prepared to keep moving,

[06:34.06]Early in the morning,you can watch the snowboarding competitions on the hill

[06:42.49]The competitors⁷ speed down the track⁸ and through the air as though they could fly.

[07:21.16]at great speeds along a snowy trakc.
[07:25.23]One person runs behind the sled.

[07:31.53]The sound of the dogs barking,
[07:34.30]the calls of the drivers and the shouts of the crowd
[07:38.14]make an exciting Northern experience.
[07:41.48]The dogs are beautiful strong animals,with long,thick fur.
[07:46.73]Many of them have blue eyes.
[07:49.97]After admiring the ice sculptures¹² everywhere in the city,
[07:54.70]much like those in Harbin in China,
[07:58.17]you can have a cup of tea or coffee in an igloo.
[08:02.43]It is amazing how warm these ice houses can be!
[08:07.11]Late in the evening,you can go to the snow palace,
[08:11.96]where Bonhomme the snowman is king,and join the crowd.
[08:17.21]You can dance outside to the music of a band,
[08:21.58]who are all dressed in heavy clothes-
[08:24.92]even some of their instruments are dressed up for winter.
