The Wiener Eistraum boasts of 7,000+ square meters of ice for skating aficionados every year. They top it every time! This year, with not only stalls around offering goodies and a separate rink for little kids but there's a maze that goes around the garden as well...
Here, when the other part of the rink gets cleaned, only the polar bear stood watch!

With very little snow this season, there's but the ski resorts to visit on a semestral break...or stay around for the Wiener Eistraum and glide with friends in front of the city hall's massive rink.
This year's skating season began on January 23 and will last until March 9. ^_^

Technically not Vienna....Wolkersdorf is a 30-minute drive from Vienna...or sort of. The open ice-skating rink is frequented by schoolkids in winter.

I have been skipping many days as usual. December went with only one post in it. :( And here comes the first theme day for this year. I pick the above photo but shown differently on a post from May 12...please click here.
The caption goes "If you carry your childhood with you, you never become older."
Seems to be a fitting reminder year by year, day by day.
