Although winter in Nanaimo has been cold and wet this year, we at the Painted Turtle haven't let the weather dampen our spirit!  Recently, we enjoyed a get-together at a local ice rink in Nanaimo, to try our hand at curling! Here, Verena gets ready with a special pair of curling shoes. Marta perfects her technique. Ready at the sidelines with brooms in hand! Bruce And finally, Bruce showing us all how it's done!
