People here celebrate a holiday named Family Day, and ours included a visit to the riverfront park downtown for skating on a frozen pond. Anne hasn’t done that since childhood so she was really excited about it, and our family now includes a hockey player who also enjoyed it greatly (and kindly offered pointers to the wobbly-legged Californians).

Then we stopped for warm treats in the Good Earth cafe that Anne found.
