We got to go skating on Monday for the second time. It's not too far from us, and amazingly they have skates to rent down to even Jasmin's size! It won't become a regular outing though, as they've just changed to rules so Jasmin will have to pay the full price for 90 min of which she will never use up. The rink is small and the ice not very hard, but that makes no difference for little ones!

BUT, they both love it and have made great progress in becoming skaters. Grace can zoom around with a frame, and both of them can inch along without help even! Though Jasmin spent a lot of this first time on "big girls skates" glued to the side, she was befriended by another girl who enticed her off the side and taught her some basic skills.


Afterwards, we hung out outside for a little while for the girls to enjoy the parade of ducks...
There were about 6-8 of these big ducks, all painted differently. Of course, each one had to be climbed on and photos had to be taken. Unfortunately, it was an awkward landing area for taking pictures so many of them didn't turn out.
