We went to the open air skating rink in the Derby marketplace today. Sage had a wonderful time skating between Molly and myself. We let her lag behind a little and then swing her forward. We all thought it was great fun. River tried it a few times, but we didn’t go quite fast enough for her.
I’ve lost the power supply for our camera, so I don’t have any pictures. Here is a video produced by the people who made the rink. We aren’t in it, but you can get a sense of what it was like. It’s pretty with all the lights, but it was quite crowed and the ice was fairly rough. We had a great time, regardless!
In other news, Jumbles arrived safely from Brussels about two hours ago. She now has a Pet Passport! She seems healthy and not as disturbed as one might expect after a almost a week and a half on the road. Sage fell asleep with Jumbles on her bed. The kids were very pleased to see her, as you can imagine.

Hi everybody! I’m so glad that Jumbles is home! I wish she could tell us all about her adventures! Have fun snuggling with her, Sagey and River!
The skating looked like great fun! I checked out the home page for Celestial Ice and it seems that it is just a temporary thing–through early January. Maybe that means that your cold season will be over soon! Love, Grana
