What’s Happening in Vancouver
As the holiday lights and decorations go up, my thoughts usually go to holiday parties, entertaining and how to be entertained. However, this is just not a regular year. Money’s tighter all round, gatherings extremely limited, and loved ones and experiences with them seem even more valuable. Here’s a few things to do around town this week to keep on keeping on. Stay safe and warm.
