Skating in Africa

Yes, Saturday we broke down and visited the skating rink. It has been open for about two months and is billed as "the only ice skating rink in east & central Africa". I'm sure that's true. West Africa too, I'd guess.

Their schedule is kinda strange... it's one hour of skating and then the rink is closed for an hour for ice maintenance. So if you arrive expecting to skate right away (like we did), you may have to wait more than an hour. Oh well. We got to tour the hotel. It's very modern and fancy. The prices are a bit out of our league.
