Family , Fun and America // Maryland, USA

Last month my family and I took our annual 9 hour road trip down to Bowie, Maryland to visit family and friends for American Thanksgiving.

Usually we spend 2 or 3 days and then hustle back home for work and school, but this time we decided to spend 4 days, and you could feel the difference. since we spent a longer time, we were able to relax a lot more and had more time with friends and family.

Because of all the extra time we had, all us kids decided we wanted to go out, so we headed to Skate Zone in Crofton, MD. Skate Zone is an indoor roller skating rink. It was my first time going to a roller skating rink, and I would have to say Skate Zone had everything I envisioned, there was an arcade if you decided you didn't want to skate and there was food and music playing to that you could dance too.

Being a Canadian you would think I would know how to skate, since we are known for being the best hockey players in the world,but to be honest, I've never been ice skating before, let alone put on a pair of skates. Even though roller blades and ice skates are different, I've never been skating period, so this was an interesting first experience. 



Let me say, skating is not something that you can just pick up on the first try, well not for me, and I won't promise I won't try it again, but practice certainly means perfect, and I need all I can get.
