While the Bay Area might not be known as a hotbed for sports played on ice, there's a magical transformation that takes place each year around the holidays. The number of ice skating rinks nearly triples, even though temperatures rarely drop below freezing. For at least two months a year, the outdoor pop-ups are hosting children learning to skate for the first time, lovers sharing a romantic date night and friends of all ages taking a spin while holiday tunes fill the air.
