Zocalo Ice Rink

I did pass the new, and temporary ice rink that has been erected in the Zocalo on Saturday. But they had a special opening event and the crowds were just heaving. No chance to get a good photo. Really I need to find time to get up onto the balcony of the Holiday Inn restaurant to get a good shot. But just in case you’re interested in seeing what it looks like, I’ve hunted down a couple of photos, day and night, on the web.
