Trying something different…

Kate and I went ice skating with friends last night.  I was surprised to find I could still skate – especially as it’s been about 3-4 years since I was on roller blades and about 5-6 years since I was on ice skates!  The last time I recall being on ice was when Brad and Wolf took me skating in Vancouver.   Yes it involved hockey sticks, and yes I wasn’t very good, but it was good fun.  Last night I didn’t have a stick.  I did have figure skating skates though and that caused all sorts of problems with my turns.  I didn’t fall over though, that’s a start!  Turns out they have an ice hockey team here, and they are quite good.  I’m guessing the team consists of Canadian students studying here…
