Tuesday 6th of January 2009 - Ice Skating Dronten

YES after a night of -16 Degrees and tonight in some places -20 Degrees (Yes in the Netherlands!!!) we finally had the change for the first time in eight years together to stand on the ice, this time in Dronten. This weekend we plan to go to the "Oostvaardersplassen" in Lelystad for ice skating.

Ps sorry for the bad quality of pictures, it's really hard to photogragh on skates on the ice without falling:)
