Although yesterday was warm for mid-November, the nearby ice rink had recently opened for the season, so grand-daughter, niece and I spent a couple of afternoon hours practicing the art of balancing on two thin blades while also moving in a forward motion.While this is a talent not as easily recovered as riding a bicycle, I felt a little more comfortable as time progressed, (it is strange sensation to be an adult taking baby steps while children barely out of toddler stage are zipping by at amazing speed!) After only one spill and a slightly bruised tailbone, I cajoled the girls into heading home for hot chocolate and a toe-warming fire - altogether a fun day!
