‘Tis the season for family traditions. Whether your family enjoys baking together, decorating the house and Christmas tree, or just snuggling in with a few favourite seasonal movies – December is the month to do it. We’re very fortunate in British Columbia to have so many options to help us enjoy the season. You can get up the mountains if you want to play in the snow – even if it hasn’t snowed in the City yet. You can watch the Carol Ships go by if you want to be closer to the ocean. Or you can attend one of the City’s magical events. Here are 3 of our favourites.
