Ice Skating in Pershing Square

The Pershing Square ice rink was, to my great surprise and pleasure, so much more adorable than I thought it would be. To be honest, Pershing Square is not a place you normally want to be at night, especially not with children, because . . . well . . . loads of homeless people sleep there and it generally smells bad. I've never thought it was unsafe, just unpleasant. I don't know where all those people go during the Christmas season, but this past Friday the only thing in the park was families and holiday decorations. I loved skating (except for when I fell). I think I might even go back after the new year since the rink is open until January 16!

PS: The view from above was taken at Perch. They had some cute Christmas decorations and a great view of the rink.
