#AtoZChallenge – I is for Ice

ICE

Whether you like your ice cubed, shaved or chopped, creating a chip off the old block *groan*, frozen water is very versatile. You can use it in various forms to keep your drinks cold, place bottles of champagne in it to chill…

It can be real or artificial and you can skate on it – figure skating, speed skating, hockey or even just a struggle to stay on your feet.

But here’s ICE that runs on rails. The European INTER-CITY EXPRESS high-speed trains. Imagine whizzing over the rails at a speed in excess of 200 km/h!

  1. Nice blog about ICE Melanie !!! Its gives us a hope of seeing summer having iced beer in hand by the beach !!

  2. I don’t have any trains that work like this in my part of the world. We do have TRAINS, but we don’t use them as public transportation. Wish we did! Visiting from #AtoZChallenge!

  3. I’d love to have a better train service where I live, too, Lydia. I’d gladly take it to work. Glad you stopped by.

  4. That would also keep your drinks from getting watered down, Lynne. Great idea. I, too, want to travel by the ICE one day.
