Skating

Today we went skating with Uli, Maria and Barbara. Actually, Uli sat and read a book, drank coffee and sometimes watched while the rest of us skated. Uli is our German tutor and Barbara is my English student.
Today was Barbara's third time on skates. She did amazingly well!
We gave her some tips on skating backwards and away she went.
Maria was a bit more cautious...

Dear Howard, Are you gritting your teeth until you get off the ice? Looking tense to me! Last time I skated was with ya'll in Edmonton in 1996, last century, at THE MALL. Boots were plastic and nonconforming to my feet bumps. I quit early and enjoyed the skating of the others.
