Been outdoor skating yet?
Winter is almost here! And I know lots of outdoor rinks are starting to open up. The one in downtown SLC opened up last friday. It was so much fun!!! The ice, once it was zambonied, was nice and glossy.
Anyone else been outdoor skating yet this season? If so, where at? And how was the ice?? |

I've been to the Winter Lodge in Palo Alto. It was in september and the ice was pretty bad. I'm sure I'll be back at least once or twice before the season is over. I love skating outdoors, especially under the stars on a cold, clear night.

That's amazing. I didn't even know it got that cold in palo alto to have an outdoor rink, like cold enough for the surface to stay alright hehe.

Yet another rink I haven't been to in QUITE a while.
Aside from the Embarcadero rink, I'm off to a very slow start on outdoor skating this year. I'm on a mission to get my bracket exercise and a couple of jumps by the time I go on my trip to NYC.

The Winter Lodge is a good adult figure skater rink on wednesday nights. There's a pretty good group of people there. You can usually get some work done too.

I'm waiting for our pond to freeze over. With the warm fall/winter we've been having, I'll probably have to wait a long while, though.

No outdoor rinks where I live! We used to have one, years ago, but I barely remember skating on it. I think there used to be Christmas shows on it. At least, my mom has pictures of me dressed as an elf, ready to skate at that outdoor rink.
The only outdoor skating I actually remember doing was in Michigan about 15 years ago. I was appalled by how bumpy and snowy the ice was, and I couldn't do anything but skate around in circles. I had been spoiled by indoor, Zambonied rinks. |

Probably won't go to skate - skating on a hyper-crowded public session on a half-sized rink? I don't think so! Might go to an exhibition if I hear of one happening in time. And Husband and I want to visit the [url=http://www.hydeparkwinterwonderland.com/]Hyde Park Winter Wonderland[/quote], perhaps next weekend - Christmas markets are always good fun!

I'm glad to hear it's warmer in Europe, though, as we are off to Dunkerque on Thursday, and it's normally absolutely FREEZING there, and even colder inside the rink!
