Go for a fall walk

Vancouver is the ideal city for a crisp fall walk. The crowds of the summer have dissipated, the leaves are golden and green and mushrooms are popping up on the forest floor and beside sidewalks. There’s lots to see and do outdoors in the fall, so why not pack up the kids and go for a walk?

Head to a favorite local shop and indulge in that post-Turkey feeling. There’s nothing like tasty goods to make it family friendly Thanksgiving!
