Every Wednesday night we travel a bit to Northgate Ice-rink for the girl's ice-skating lessons. They have been skating for almost two years now, and have way overtaken our abilities on the ice - which I must say, couldn't have been difficult! They both really love their skating - Rachel loves to go fast, and Amanda just loves the social element, getting to chat to the kids and the teachers.

The lesson takes an hour, so Glen and I drop the girls off at the rink, and go for a pizza at Panarotti's accross the way, where we can see them through the glass, and yet enjoy a little date at the same time. We all love our Wednesday nights at the rink!
