Annual Ice Rink at Somerset House

I’ve only gone ice-skating once in my life and I think that was quite enough for me. I don’t know if it was the ill-fitting boots but the pain I was in was just … too much! Anyway, that didn’t stop R and I turning up to Somerset House to check out their annual ice rink. I’d like to think that one day I’d like to try again and although the rink at Somerset House is pretty – I might reserve the skating for a more private arena. Still, most people looked like they were enjoying themselves … except for this poor little 3 year old girl who burst into tears prior to getting on to the ice … Oh – they also had an Ice Wall there which was a pretty cool way to experience outdoor ice climbing. Unfortunately the £40 for the hour session was just a bit out of my budget tonight. I might save my pounds for real ice climbing. (Yea right!)
