Ice Skating?

This afternoon we were invited to an ice skating party at Bicentennial Plaza. It was the first time our kids had experienced ice skating. Okay, the kids didn’t end up doing a lot of ice skating. Adam was the only one who got a real work out. Mostly they sat on the chairs and danced to the music while Adam pushed and spun them around. But hey, it’s a start!

It was one of those occasions I really wished I wasn’t pregnant. Normally that feeling only happens when everyone else around me is drinking, so it was a surprise. It just looked like so much fun!

I can’t wait to go back when I’m able to skate. The party we went to was a private rental from 1-3:30 but they are open Monday-Friday, 1-9 p.m and Saturday and Sunday, 3:30-8:30 p.m. There is a teen skate every Friday, 5-7 p.m. It’s $7 for skate rental and admission is free. I’d try to get there by public transportation. We couldn’t find street parking and ended up parking in the Millennium Park garage for 3 hours and were charged a whopping $30 dollars.
