Penn's Landing River Rink

  Have you been to the river rink lately at Penn's landing? Well if not, then you are missing out! This winter we discovered Philly's top winter hot spot.
You can skate with Santa and get your picture taken just like you used to. They have upgraded the surroundings with really cool seating around fire stoked chimeneas, lit pine trees, and hay bales.

Celebrating my birthday with friends 

This is Alex's first time on skates. I'm really proud of him for getting out there, but it didn't last very long. He was off the rink without even going around the rink.








Lilia did a little better, and enjoyed it much more than Alex. At that point Dave's back was killing him from supporting the kids, so she didn't last long either. Eh, better luck next year right?

If you need to warm up there is a lodge set up with leather couches, wool blankets, jenga, hot chocolate and fun adult beverages. There is a small menu of typical American food...burgers and sandwiches if you get hungry.
All in all, the atmosphere is really cool, there is plenty to do even if you aren't good on the ice.
Check it out; it will be your new favorite winter go to.
