Nearly there - the ice rink

Nearly there - the ice rink, originally uploaded by dccrowley.

The ice rink in Gytsjerk/ Giekerk is frozen over. Just another day or three and it will be thick enough to skate on.

It's cold here and the folks here are expecting to be able to skate by the end of the week. These kids are on small irrigation canals without skates testing how the ice is

This restaurant, Froukje State, (kind of in the middle of no where ) has just received a Michelin star in November 2008. You can eat there for about 100-150euro p.p. I think it's really cool that we have a place like this near here.
