A man is going down the dike to skate on the ice lake. After several days of sub-zero temperatures during the night, the water of some lakes started to freeze over. People took the chance to skate on one of the frozen lakes close to the Dutch city of Nijmegen. It takes at least four whole days of below-freezing temperatures to form ice thats safe to walk and skate on, and that only applies to ponds or lakes with no currents.
