Now that is a Northern Christmas!

In my posting on Winter Fun only ten days ago, I referred to my dubious history of ice skating. (as a quick reminder - twenty years since I did it, broke my wrist on that earlier occasion). Anyway, we skated in Eindhoven, and then got to Tallinn and found a beautiful outdoor rink, pictured.

What better way to work off a hefty Christmas lunch than spend an afternoon on the ice. So there we found ourselves on Christmas Day, rugged up to our eyeballs, ice skating on an outdoor rink in Estonia! A long way from the usual family gathering in the heat back home.

With two rounds of skating in just over a week, Nicky has improved quickly. For me, it is more of a case of my enthusiasm being greater than my style, but at least it did not result in a trip to hospital!
