I just recently realized that the new park close-ish to my house has a small field, and that of course, they ice it during winter. It’s the first below freezing day in a couple of days today so I went to check it out. Although it snowed a lot all day yesterday, so I wasn’t sure if it was going to be cleaned yet. But yes, the mini tractor was still there working -on the park side. I think he’d just done the ice before that. So, I changed into my own skates and while I was doing that, the driver parked the tractor opposite to the ice and just stared at me from inside. That was super awkward. I haven’t been on my skates in like 10 years and I could barely stay up at first. The ice was all bumpy too, so not helping. But, luckily he left soon and I was able to ease back into it. My feet started hurting really quickly but I was glad to notice I can still go backwards and do little twists and turns.
And so that this isn’t just about me: Rise was there too, because ice skating is her hobby. :D I had basically zero privacy, because some woman came to clean the park (with a shovel and stuff) even further and was there the entire time I was on all fours, taking doll photos. That and kids were coming home from school and tried to see what I was doing over the snowy edges. =__= Oh well, I got a couple of cute photos. It was not easy because she was on skates -on ice and they obviously slide on it.
I wish there was a hockey rink close by -that would have nicer ice. The closest one isn’t that far away, but ices like that always have kids there, no matter what time you go.
Her ice skates look so realistic! :D Ahaha~ what an amazing adventure you’ve had trying to take those pictures XD It’s always awkward when people stare!
Also, her jacket is really cute! I love the pattern!
Thank you. They feel realistic too: they have the right kind of lacing and actual metal blades… they’re really well made. :3
I don’t really mind that much when people stare, as long as they don’t come to talk to me and ask me what I’m doing. =__=; That’s much more awkward.
That jacket is also from the same loot as the skates, but I didn’t even realize I was getting it. I was looking at all the other cool stuff and this one just looked like some ugly holiday sweater. But I was surprised by how damn cute it was in person and how well it suited Rise. xD
She is so adorable with her scating outfit. ^__^ Hurray for going out there and photograph your Rise there, I find it really uncomfortable when people come and see what I’m doing.
Uuh toivottavasti ei haittaa kun koitin linkata sivusi blogiini, ei tainnut onnistua mutta tekee seuraamisesta helpompaa. ^^
Oh she is. I can imagine how cold she’d be if she wasn’t plastic, though, but what can you do, I don’t have that much clothes for her. xD Honestly, I was more uncomfortable when the tractor driver stared at me as I almost stumbled on my own scates. At least when I’m taking doll photos, I know what I’m doing. :P
Ei tietenkään haittaa. Linkkaaminen pitää varmaan tehdä jotenkin manuaalisesti kun tämä minun wordpress ei ihan suorilta taida olla yhteydessä blogspotin systeemiin. Minulla on bloggerikin mitä kautta yritän muistaa seurata blogspot blogeja, mutta omaani en saa liitettyä siihenkään ihan noin vaan. Harmittaa ettei linkkaukset toimi suorilta, mutta tykkään huomattavasti enemmän wordpressin systeemeistä ja ne sai vaivattomasti ladattua omalle domainille myös niin päädyin sitten tähän.
