f****g 发帖数: 1263 | 8 回来了,不错,人很多,小孩子占了人口的差不多一半。冰雕不错,我以前从来没看过
冰雕,所以也不知道水平如何,反正我看着是很好了,昨天暖和,冰雕都开始化了,但
是那些人还是雕的兢兢业业。这个就是最大的看点了。还有很多西伯利亚husky一字排
开被铁链邦着,都很乖,见了陌生人也不叫唤,随便摸,接吻什么的都来者不拒,只要
你是善意的,用一个流行的词来形容就是非诚勿扰。我就注意到这么多。

绕不成一个整圈,最后人狗叫了半天劲,有一只狗还是不肯掉头,其他的屈服了,于是
由一个人牵着一只狗,另几只狗拉着雪橇回来了,太逗了。难怪有人说“狗脾气”。

业余选手,哈哈。
