I was looking through the photos I took at Toronto's annual ice race one last time and saw this one.
Alberto won four years consecutively about ten years ago. He is still fast (made the semi-finals this year) but he knows winning again is a very long shot (all the right people would have to fall). Still, he shows up every year, races hard and just has a great time. A few people dress up but the Ice Emperor has the best costume each year. I know I showed a few others of him in earlier GESOs but this gives a good look at his costume and his character: http://knarfdummyblog.blogspot.ca/2013/03/the-ice-emperor.html?m=1 Too bad about the two oof snowflakes in his face; what can you do? ;-) Hope you enjoy. Comments always welcome.
