A few weeks ago, we decided to go ice skating. We hadn't been in years - we think the last time we went was when we still lived in Ohio (which is over 7 years ago). About 20 minutes from our house in Charlotte is the US Whitewater Training Center (it is one of the Olympic training centers for whitewater rafting).
The Whitewater Center turns part of its rafting/kayaking "river" (it is manmade) into two ice skating rinks in the wintertime. They are pretty big and offer a lot of skating space - with the exception of the entrance where it tended to get a bit crowded I felt like everyone was spaced out enough to not be spreading any potential COVID germs. It was a really cool experience and I would definitely go back again.
It took us a little bit of time to get our legs underneath us, and some of us were better at picking up ice skating again than others of us, but I would say that all of us who went (which included Sarah, Elizabeth, Bobby, and I) had a really nice time.
I love this pic so much because it sums up their relationship perfectly: always side-by-side, steadying each other, holding each other up when needed. |
