My mum took my brother and me to Paradise Ice-Skaters. We had to hire our own skates, since we did not own any. I am telling you now, I never rollerbladed. I was too frightened to try. So, since ice-skating is similar to rollerblading, my mum had to hire a frame for me to balance on. My brother rollerbladed before,so you can say, he is kind of an expert in this peticular activity. This event was painful, but it was worth it.
After sometime, I started to get the hang of it. It took me a while to get used to it. I kept on slipping on the ice. One time, I was skating a bit faster than usual, concentrating on the public, that I accidently fell ankle-first hardcore on the plate-like frost. It was a couple of minutes before I could stand up. But, it felt like hours. My knees kept giving way, which DID NOT make it easier for me to get up. I had to hold on to the frame to regain my balance.
I kept on skating, and eventually forgot about the mistake. Time flew by,and before I knew it, It was time to return home.
I will never forgot this incident. The first time I skated. The first few rounds were excruciating, but then it got really entertaining. I am DEFINITELY going Ice-Skating again. :)
Hey Renitta,
ReplyDeleteMy name is Sandy. I loved this post! It was full of vocabulary. When the title was called 'Ice-Skating Adventure', I was intrigued! I LOVE Ice-skating!
You made me want to go skating. Absolutely incredible!
The part which I liked the most was when you said that you got up even when you fell. You know what they say, If you do not succeed, try, try again!
Awesome job. Stupendous blog. I love your posts.
What do you like doing on the ice besides Ice-Skating?!
Hello Sandy,
DeleteThank you for posting a very nice comment on my blog. I enjoyed reading it, and I really mean it!
Do you take Ice-Skating classes? Because, when I read your post, I assumed that you might have taken lessons. If so, taht is wonderful!
I like throwing snowballs at my brother. Once, when I went to Mountain Rupahu, I went sledding. It was a lot of fun!
Thanks once again.

Hello Steph,
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for your comment. I appreciate it a lot. :)
I know, I am bad at it as well. I just keep trying. It is an awesome activity, once you get used to it.
My favourite part was when I was going really fast. I just LOVED the wind brushing against my face.
Thanks once again.

Hello Daniel,
ReplyDeleteThanks for the encouragement. I am glad that you kept trying for rollerblading. It sounds painful. Ice-skating isn't as bad as you think it is. You get the hang of it. It is just like rolleblading. You should try it sometime :D
Thanks once again.
