Hey there, time traveller!

The Assiniboine Park Conservancy is offering an assortment of winter activities beginning this month.
The skating area at Riley Family Duck Pond and the Cargo Bar pop-up patio will open at Assiniboine Park Friday.
A staging shelter beside the pond provides a space for patrons to use the washroom and warm up.
The site is open daily for skating from 7 a.m. to 10 p.m.
Hockey sticks and pucks are not permitted on the pond.
The Cargo Bar is open Friday 4 p.m. to 8 p.m., and Saturday, Sunday and holidays from 12 p.m. to 8 p.m. It serves craft beers, wine, specialty cocktails and a selection of non-alcoholic drinks.
Food is available at the nearby Park Café, located in the Qualico Family Centre. The café is open daily from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. and offers a full menu with dine-in service and a takeout window.
The park also features a toboggan hill, cross-country ski trails and year-round running, walking and cycling pathways.
“Assiniboine Park is a great place to enjoy a variety of outdoor winter activities,” park spokeswoman Sara Wolowich Brown said in a news release Thursday. “We invite visitors to embrace the season and head outside for some fresh air and exercise.”
