Here we are. A more typical January day. A cold front moved in on the jet stream, and it brought snow. I was awake at 11:30, after going to bed at 9, I peeked outside and there was our bunny under the feeder.
It is still snowing this morning. Once it stops I'll go out and blow it away. In the meantime, I am warm and cozy with my housecoat and jammies, and my coffee.
I had so much fun watching this one. It's your typical Christmas RomCom, but the locations are amazing.
It began at the Ottawa Farmers Market: Le Moulin de Provence. This is our protagonist, walking to work, supposedly. Ullerup, the actor, was in a Canadian television show, Arctic Air, which we enjoyed. It was set in Yellowknife, filmed in British Columbia, and Northwest Territories.
Emilie Ullerup is a lovely Canadian actor born in Denmark. She moved to Vancouver in 2003. She trained there as an actor and has a prolific filmography.
The film moved from Ottawa to the country, and to Quebec.
Isn't this wonderful?! This is an actual Ice Hotel.
At $400 CDN/night, it's a tad beyond us. There are hot tubs and access to lots of nearby winter activities. I couldn't help feeling a bit cold, though.
I loved this pub. I haven't been able to find it, though.
An old schoolhouse or church. These scenes were shot at the
Cumberland Heritage Village Museum, east of Ottawa.
They do some wonderful outdoors activities, a ride with a horse and buggy. Winter scenes. It was a fun one, with people enjoying the winter and the Ice Hotel.
The humorous part of the film is when our hero, 'Jenny,' tries her hand at cross-country skiing. She doesn't do too well skiing (part of the plot), but the actor was born and grew up in DENMARK❓❗
