Now the city has come up with a skating rink using faux ice (works better in 86 F degree weather). The rink is only open at certain times and was closed when we came by. It's very small, though, so serves mostly younger children. But they have fun skating on it.
I've never skated on this faux ice so have no clue what it feels like. The rink will come down soon as we leave the holidays behind.

Looks wonderful place to do skating.
Wish you a Merry Christmas.
Oh I hope that the faux ice works well so the kiddies can learn how to skate!
Didn't know that faux ice even existed. Wonder how it compares to the real thing? Many towns have indoor ice skating arenas, but they are expensive to operate.
I've only seen one of these faux ice rinks before and there were people skating on it at the time. I remember that it sounded so quiet compared to real ice.
We haven't had any snow here in Montreal so we will be having a green Christmas this year, which is almost unheard of! We do have some indoor rinks, but many Quebecers prefer the outdoor ones, and they love to ski, too, but with no snow....
This is great, Lowell! I love to watch skaters and the figure skating, I find it very relaxing. :)
Faux ice? I guess it kinda goes with the other Florida faux.
Um belo rinque de patinagem.
Um abraço e BOAS FESTAS.
Although our temperatures are not in the mid 80s now, it has been an expensive year for outdoor rinks here too. Who woulda thunk it?
An ice rink in Florida... and a very nice one!
Faux ice? What is that? :)
Like the decorations.
Faux ice? What is it? I love to ice skate---met my first boyfriend on the rink.
We aren't having sunny days but we do have sunny smiles.

I never realized there was such a thing as faux-ice.
The skating rink here is faux too... Yours is suspiciously empty!
Faux ice is a new term to me!
