For the past few weeks, we have been treated to the sight of grand preparations in the Piazza del Popolo. As had been rumored, they were putting in an ice rink!
 |
| The platform wood had clearly had previous use. |
 |
| Walls in! |
 |
| Chilling loops in! |
 |
| During the freezing process |
 |
| They have a very pretty seating area, too! |
There were some setbacks along the way, including an undersized chiller (we've had an unseasonably warm winter), but tonight, only a week late, people are skating! For 7 euros an hour, you can get skates and impress your friends with your prowess or alternatively discover how hard ice really is on the coccyx, depending on your experience.
I'm not planning to go out tonight (too crowded!), but will definitely be out there at some point this season!
Love,
Alexandra
