We had fun today. We were pretty lazy this morning and it was after Noon when we finally got going. We got tomorrow planned out and then headed to find the ice skating rink. There was a pretty cool area that we walked through. It was chillier today, but still fairly nice.

| Cool Building |
The rink is actually inside a mall type building. We wandered around awhile until we found it. You go in a door and up some stairs to get to a very SMALL rink. We found we had about an hour to wait before we could skate so we went to wander around the mall a little. I was hoping to find some fun things to buy, but no such luck. Unless clothes and perfume are what you're looking for. We got something to eat and ran into the missionaries. That was fun. There is a place right by the rink with internet so today must have been P-day. That was really fun. Too bad they're not all from Utah. I'd like to go to their homecomings. :)
After we ate, we finally got to skate. They were a little low in figure skates so I got hockey. Let's just say I'm very used to having a toe pick and it's not as easy without one. LOL I didn't fall at all though! Yea! Ira did much better than her first time there in Utah. Masha did too. :)

After skating we went to a large grocery store in the basement of said mall. It wasn't fun to navigate around the tons of people, but there was actually such a thing as variety in this place. We got a few things we can't get near home and off we went. While on the way back, we saw this...

| I thought it was cool to hear this guy just playing as people walked by. |
Then, as we went back into the neat area on our way back, we saw this....

| Then we saw this one with an electric violin. Way cool! |

Once back home we just relaxed. Nothing too exciting. Masha went out with some friends and we watched Bye Bye Birdie. The girls wanted to watch a Star Trek Deep Space Nine of all things, after that and I'm pretty sure it was their first Star Trek. They thought all the make up on the people was weird. They made fun of all the different characters. Through lovely Google Translate I tried to tell them it was a show about people in space so they're not all human. They seemed to understand, but who knows what it really told them. LOL
Now it's about time for bed. Fun stuff. Day 6 is done! I'm sad to have to take Kristina back though. Ira too, but I know I'll be picking her up again in a few days. Not so with Kristina. Can't we take them all?????
