Week 6, Day 1, Cristin

Managed to get in my Sunday start with an hour an a half of ice skating. It’s really the perfect exercise because it just feels like a good time. And yesterday was particularly fun. The rink in our neighborhood has been pretty crappy lately so we took a drive to Hyde Park (Barack Obama’s neighborhood!!) and skated on a rink that is on the sight of the Midway of the 1893 Worlds Fair. And then we headed to one of Obama’s favorite restaurants called Dixie Kitchen and Bait Shop and ate Southern food that made me miss home and also think that I simply ice skated in order to eat since it was pretty calorie laden. But who cares? Barack Obama eats there!
