Christmas skating rinks

At the beginning of December a number of skating rinks appear in all kinds of places. This one is outside Somerset House. Everyone seemed to be having such fun.

There was also a beautiful Christmas tree to admire.

  1. I live in Florida so our skating rinks are inside ;)... I used to love to skate however when we lived in Alaska. Thanks for stopping by my place and visiting.

  2. I love ice skating. Where I grew up, winters were cold and we'd shovel the snow off a frozen pond for skating. Where I live now, the only ice skating rinks are in shopping malls...

  4. There are few more picturesque scenes during the wintry days than groups of people skating in ponds. It is such a carefree thing to do amid the bustle of day-to-day life.

  5. Very nice! Our rinks won't show up until the weather gets quite a bit colder. And then we have one right downtown. I'll take a picture if I can. Yours is much prettier! :-)

    London-town is looking beautiful.

  7. Looks like everyone is busy having fun skating to think about the cold, and the Christmas tree is pretty!

  8. Ice skating in the open air is such an alien concept downunder at Christmas!!! But it looks like fun!!
