Ice skating and Irish pub

Hello everyone!!!

Cathy has been visiting her friend from China that also study around here so I’ve been home alone L but I survived! I have been studying, watching movies and so forth. I were going to Detroit with another exchange student, Ard from The Netherlands but Cathy accidentally had my passport with her, so there were no Detroit for us, hopefully we will go next week.

Instead I and Ard went ice skating with the Windsor University’s VISA group which is a student organization that arranges activities for international students. It was a very long time since I last ice skated but I think it went OK, I didn’t fall once!!! Haha

However we arrived a bit later than the rest of the people so finding our size in ice skates proved to be a quite difficult task. As can see here on the picture, I’m fighting to get my foot in to a too small skate. And to another thing, if you look in the left down corner, you can see my new sneakers that I bought last time me and Cathy went to Detroit shopping. More on that later…

Ard on the ice, he skated better than me, which is a shame since I’m from Sweden… But when I come back to Sweden, I will practice!

At least I could stand on the skates and even move forward! (Sandra don't laugh :-()

AI don’t know what this Euro Hockey school have to with Windsor, but the Swedish flag is in the left corner :D I concluded that the European hockey leagues is much better than American hence the Americans want to practice like us, haha

After some ice skating (with too small sizes I want to remind you), we went to a downtown Irish pub, called “Mick’s Irish Pub”. However this pub showed to be no different than the usual pubs, beside some small green lights, se we didn’t notice what was Irish about it, but hey, the name was Irish :p

There were some band (Celtic Cross) playing some Irish/American songs, some songs were quite good, others you could hear the singer’s voice which proved to be quite bad when you are sober… but in the end it proved to be quite fun anyway…

Today Cathy comes back and the school starts again as we are in Monday today. The time goes by extremely fast, too bad though…
