Lottery won!
First hurdle mastered. We won the lottery and had the opportunity to pick a block first. So now we have taken the block we already choose as our favourite. YES! We start carving tomorrow morning. We keep you posted.
Some Whitehorse impressions
Our Block, or better said the block we would like to have
Lottery for the blocks is tonight. We already selected our favorite block having the sun in the back to prevent the snow from too quick melting. Pictures below should give you a bit of an impression of the size of a raw block. The sculpture is already there, we just have to carve it out of the block 🙂
Carving starts tonight
The official start is tonight. There will be a dinner with the lottery for the blocks. Hope that we get one of the blocks which is not too exposed to sunlight. The temperatures are rising during the week, bad for carving ?
Arrived!
After more than 22 hours we finally have arrived at Whitehorse. We are happy to say that our carving tools cleared customs. Now it’s time for a nap.
