Skating in the Park

Some day back in December, JJ really wanted to get into the spirit of the holidays and enjoy one of the most awkward sports a novice could do. Throwing caution to the wind, we decided to go ice skating. Below is a picture when we first arrived and the Zamboni was out clearing the ice so it would be much smoother and wetter when we both fell and broke our necks.


We actually didn't hit the ice right away. There was just far too many people there. The whole ice rink was about the size of our living room and tons and tons of people were waiting to go.

Later, after dark, there were fewer children to fall on and kill (albeit there were still many out there) so we got our free skates and stepped on. Below is the elegant and talented skating JJ posing for the camera.

Another photo of evil twin JJ who has absolutely no coordination on the ice. Which blows my mind since she was once a gymnast in a past life which one would assume would have some kind of balance. You would be wrong.

Relaxing before heading back out.

So you didn't believe me JJ has no balance on the ice. Just watch the video. It speaks for itself. Sorry it's sideways. You're just going to have to deal.

All in all this was a good trip. I didn't fall once during the whole time we were there, until just about when it was time to go and we were attacked by some of the aforementioned children. They came straight at us and there was no escape. It either them or us and I chose us. Down we went. Not bad all in all.
