Valentine's Skate


I surprised C with a out-of-the-ordinary activity last Thursday. I arranged for us to have a VIP skating night at The Charles Hotel in Harvard Square! I told him we'd be doing "something fun," but we both thought it would be more fun if he didn't know what it was until the day of. C guessed a gaggle of things: apple picking, Celtics game, cooking class, and jewelry making class (like that would be "fun" for him...)! 

But he really had no idea until we showed up at the skating rink. It was a great night, because there weren't as many people as there would have been at the rink at the Commons- just the other people who'd signed up for the same thing. I was pretty mediocre at skating, but C was great! I could honestly say he could beat me at ice skating.  

Though it was COLD, a great time was had by all. We even got complementary hot chocolate which C claimed was "the best hot chocolate" he's ever had.  

Now, that's a good surprise!
