Fireworks are set off on the Alexandria Bridge crossing the Rideau River, February 3, 2012. The twenty minute fireworks show marks the start of Winterlude 2012.
Fireworks, ice and music helped kick off the 34th Winterlude on Friday Feb. 3, 2012. All weekend long, kids of all ages enjoyed the Snowflake Kingdom at Jacques-Cartier Park and families laced up their skates at the recently re-opened Rideau Canal Skateway. This year's War of 1812 themed festivities will run until Feb. 20.
