1. Bundle up for the elements and head outside for a nice long walk. After the hustle and bustle of the holiday season, nothing clears your head better than getting some fresh air. There’s no shortage of places to stroll in the Royal City – the waterfront, Glenbrook Ravine and Queen’s Park are some of our favourites.
2. Wind down from the hectic pace of the holidays and take in a flick at Landmark 10 New Westminster. Located at the Shops at New West Station, Landmark features new releases and charges less than you’ll pay at many theatres.
