After all, Christmas was originally celebrated on December 25 to take the place of the pagan winter solstice celebration, and there are still many Christmas traditions that have more to do with the solstice than with Christianity (holly, mistletoe, evergreens, yule logs, exchanging gifts, feasting). So to this northerner, the castle says: light up the darkness and celebrate winter.
Being from Minnesota as well, I totally agree with you. If only our ice palaces were as magical - this one doesn't melt at the first hint of warmth!
Drop another coin in slot and I will tell you more.
