We had our annual trip to winter wonderland on Monday (later than anticipated - was supposed to be Boxing Day with grandfather, and then NY Day with my brother and family but poured with rain so we went to the zoo instead - don't ask

) and the ice was melting so they had to sweep off the water - I'm told they always do this in the afternoon anyway, but it really was mild that day and people were trying to skate through huge puddles of water!
