Spring is in the air

This list, while not fully inclusive of them all, includes the following frozen oases for you to add to your next winter adventure:
Rockefeller Center, New York City
Eiffel Tower, Paris
Rideau Canal, Ottawa, Canada
Keystone Lake, Keystone, Colorado
Grouse Mountain, Vancouver, British Columbia
Nathan Phillips Square, Toronto
Zermatt, Switzerland
Red Square Rink, Moscow
On the Strip, Las Vegas
Lake Weissensee, Carinthia, Austria
Sommerset House, London
Curry Village Ice Rink, Yosemite National Park

The next time you’re dusting off your skates and dreaming about pirouettes on ice, add some of these to your list to visit.
