Today was ice skating day with Julia, Irene, Erika, Pedro and Matt. We have a new tradition on Sundays: ice skating. It's better than sitting around doing nothing and it's great exercise. We take the train to the next town Reutlingen and walk about 15 minutes to the Eishalle (ice hall). It was super fun! I haven't had that much fun doing a winter sport in a while. It was Irene and Erika's first time ever ice skating so it was quit entertaining to watch them in action. We skated for about 2 hours and took a dinner break and then went back for 2 more hours. I hurt all over so I know it was a good work out. I did learn to skate backwards so I was excited about that. Near the end, there weren't many people at the rink so we played a game of tag and that was pretty funny to watch. That was the only time I fell actually. I was trying to 'run' away from Matt who was it and I ran smack into another girl and slid about 6 feet across the ice on my stomach. It was pretty hilarious and I couldn't stop laughing long enough to get upJ. It was an exhausting day, but a good one.
"May our Lord Jesus Christ Himself and God our Father, who loved us and by His grace gave us eternal encouragement and good hope, encourage your hearts and strengthen you in every good deed and word." ~II Thessalonians 2:16-17
