Ice-Skating Fun

Just before we got snowed in for the Christmas holidays, we went ice-skating in the freezing weather. This outdoor ice-skating rink is only there for the holiday season. They just set up the ice-skating rink in the middle of the park under a tent structure.
It was definitely more fun skating in an outdoor rink than an indoor rink. It was also really beautiful since it had just snowed the previous day.
The little one really enjoyed herself!
Unfortunately a few days after we skated there, there was a mishap. We had a snowstorm and there were just too much snow. That caused the entire tent to collapse. Luckily there were not many people skating since most people were snowed in. Most of them escaped with minor injuries. The ice-skating rink has since reopened but without the tent. It is now an open-air rink.
What’s the deal with the tent? It’s skating–outside–in the cold–people are bundled up! Sheesh. We have become babies, haven’t we?! We have a nice rink downtown Chicago that we go to. It is soooo much fun!! Your little one looks like she’s a professional!
Ice-Skating is really enjoyable one. I have something for you. Congratulations! please check my blog for details!
How fun! I haven’t been ice skating since I was a little girl. There just aren’t very many places around here, despite living in NE where there is plenty of snow & ice in the winter! I’ll have to find one so my family can have the experience!
