Ice Skating Anyone?

Anyone intererested in planning an excursion to skate down at the National Galley sometime in late January/February either on a weekday or Friday night (they are open to 11:00 pm) or on a weekend day?

Parking might be a bit of a challenge unless we arrive right at opening on a weekend. I don't know much about parking options in the area other than the street.

We could combine this if there is interest with a weekday/Friday night dinner somewhere in the area - Jaleo for tapas?

Ok! As for parking, instead of fighting through the city, we could always park at a metro station and ride in.

I would be up for this as well. I've been wanting to try out this rink. Since I would be driving three hours to get there, (A PhillyMini member here) a weekend time would be better for me.

The colder it is, the faster you have to skate.
