Hi Alicia! How’s it going?
All is well! How about you?
Everything is great! I’m just returning from a seminar about recreational
opportunities in Manitoba. I had no idea there was so much to do here!
I used to think that, but there’s lots to do here in the winter, too!
I suppose that’s true in the summer, but I don’t know about the winter.
Well, have you ever visited the planetarium or the museum?
A few times. Now that you mention it, we really enjoyed ourselves.
That’s something you can do in the winter. Have you ever thought about the
library?
Really? Like what!
You know, I haven’t.

Well, they offer many excellent program for the whole family.
I think I’ll check those out. Oh, you know what else? We just signed up for a
program at the local leisure centre.
That’s a great idea! Is there a cost for admission there?
I think it’s open Monday to Friday 9 am to 9pm and 9 am to 6 pm Saturday and
Sunday.
No, it’s free to enter, but registration is required, depending on the program.
For younger children’s programs, all activities are done with adult supervision.
That’s good to know! I think I’ll head down there and check it out. Do you
know the hours of operation?
I think I’ll head down there and see what programs are available.
Hold on a minute. I’ll go with you.
Sounds great!
