Ice Skating at Somerset House
The photo above is that of Somerset House in London. For Christmas, an ice skating rink has been set up in the courtyard and a big Christmas tree stands in front of it. It's very pretty! (As you probably do realise, I'm not writing in chronological order. I'm still in Munich at point of writing this post - am holing myself up in a cafe to get away from the cold and typing away on my laptop as there's wifi here. Thank god for wifi!)
I'm getting ready to get on the ice! I hadn't skated in probably about 15 years and I was really wondering if I could still skate!
There's a special area for kids who are learning how to skate and they have little penguins to help them. It's so cute!
I discover, to my delight, that I can still skate. I guess it's just like cycling...once you learn it you don't forget it. I went skating with my cousin and we had a really good time at Somerset House.
