Bob here to share the fabulous adventure of our week seven winner, Bobber Emilie!
Hold on to your flippers because we’re diving into a magical moment that unfolded at the one and only Hôtel de Glace, or as I like to call it, the Ice Hotel in Valcartier, Quebec.
It turns out, love can be just as frosty as ice!
Hotel de Glace is constructed from about 11,000 tons of snow and 350 tons of ice. The result – a magnificent frozen palace!
That’s right – it’s the only Ice Hotel in North America and a true winter wonderland.
Now, imagine Emilie’s boyfriend concocting a weekend brimming with surprises.
A dazzling engagement ring waiting in his pocket to pop the big question.
After their 40-minute drive from Quebec City, they waddled through the stunning entrance.
Emilie and her future husband were greeted by a crisp breeze and a sight that sparkled like my own rubbery exterior!
The Grand Hall was filled with jaw-dropping ice sculptures and twinkling lights.
They like Hollywood icons at an extravagant gala instead of an icy getaway!
After receiving a warm welcome and delightful cocktails served in ice glasses, they headed off to their cozy igloo-like suite.
Wrapped in fluffy fleece blankets, they snuggled together, no doubt sharing chuckles and sweet whispers in their snug little hideaway.
Now that’s what I call “cool” vibes!
But wait, the fun didn’t stop there!
Off they went to the Nordic area, where bubbling hot tubs and a canopy of stars invited them to relax.
Basking in the warmth while laughter danced through the frosty air!
The next day was jam-packed with adventure!
Zipping down thrilling slopes at Village Vacances Valcartier, cheeks flushed and giggles echoing all around.
Then, off to the ice rink, gliding and twirling hand in hand beneath the gentle kiss of the winter sun.
Who knew love could be so much fun?
But the grand finale awaited! As the sun dipped low, the moment arrived – proposal time!
With a heart full of excitement, Emilie’s boyfriend dropped to one knee under twinkling lights that sparkled like stars.
Out came that stunning ring, and Emilie – oh, she just glimmered with joy!
“YES!” she whispered, and I could practically hear the cheers echoing through the wintry wonderland.
They celebrated with cocktails at the Ice Bar, toasting to their future before retreating to their icy bedroom.
Cuddled up in thick sleeping bags, candlelight flickering around them, they drifted into dreamland.
Their one-night stay at the Hôtel de Glace was packed with laughter, love, and memories. These special memories would melt the iciest heart!
As they checked out the next day, they cheered at the thought of returning.
After all, the magic of winter and their beautiful love story would be waiting for them to explore again.
So cheers to Emilie for sharing her enchanting BOBortunity with us!
With my own eyes wide with excitement, I’ve definitely added Hôtel de Glace and its frosty wonders to our list of unique destinations.
Just imagine the adventures waiting for us!
