ice skating

Growing up I always dreamed of being a figure ice skater (as cheese as it might be I still wish I could be one). When I was about 7 there was an ice skating rink in the city where my sister started taking lessons. I was so excited to go with her, but when we got there they didn't have skates my size, so I had to stay outside and watch the class, and patiently wait to grow up a little more so I could be in there.
By the time my feet were big enough for their skates, the place closed... It turns out that it's expensive to keep an ice rink when it's 80 degrees year round.

I still love ice skating!

halloween in the village

On Halloween we went for a walk around the village. Pretty crazy! I was little black riding hood--caperucita negra (I'll take any opportunity to wear that blue wig) and the big success of the nigh was my friends' costume of a shower (third pic down)! We got to see a bit of the parade and some cool stuff!
