Rú is skating!!
Over the weekend—like everyone else—we tried to make the most of the cold and, overcoming my fears, we ended up back on the ice of Nyírjes (in my nightmares, I still see the ice breaking and little Ruben plunging in, and I can’t get near the ice sheet for him…). After 10 minutes, the tip of my nose went numb; after 20 minutes, my entire face lost sensation. But Rú absolutely loved the whole atmosphere, so for an hour I tried to keep every muscle and joint flexible to not spoil the fun.
After an hour, the laws of physiology won, and despite all the fidgeting, we started to stiffen completely from the cold. That hour on a -18°C day was the biggest challenge of the year so far! O.O But despite everything, looking back, I loved the whole experience!
