Empty ice skating rink, too

Just as the roller coaster pictured below was empty, so was the ice skating rink at Panorama Mall except for this one little boy. It has been a pretty cool fall and winter, but I imagine this rink could be a big attraction in summer.

No riders on the roller coaster:

It does look empty, not just the rink, of course, but the space behind. Fascinating to see such a rink in a desert country. V

Wow, that's a big skating rink! Lots of space to practice. V

an area of flat ice must come as something of a cultural mystery

Very well composed. great sense of scale. It feels very lonely. V

That looks vert attractive with the giant snowflakes. Maybe there's another time o day when it's busier. There was a temporary ice rink in town which was very popular,
Crisp shooting! V

Two very nice images,Helen! I am surprised these places aren't full of people!

A nice looking ice rink and all to yourself! Wonder where the people are? V

I don't know if you ice-skate Helen, but if I were you, this is definitely the place I'd hang out all summer over there!
