First Ever Ice Skating

Kyra's classmate Lauren competes in ice skating and she invited Kyra to try it too. Apparently, they have a class once in a while when they are allowed to bring a friend, so Kyra is in. Since she never tried it before (only rollerskating), I took her to Hersheypark Arena to try. 

I wonder if everyone stands on the skates as soon as they put them on? I do not know/remember. But that is what she did. She walked on her own to the ice and first, was holding to the sides. For about one full circle. Then she wanted me to let her go. She was getting frustrated at some point why she could not slide but only walk, but by 3rd-4th circle she was, still awkwardly, but on doing it on her own. She was very determined to do it with no help from me. Sounds SO like her :) 

I did not have time for proper skating myself, but I had fun watching her. Love her to pieces!
