Every year around this time, most people are finishing their mad scramble at shopping malls and department stores, hoping to get the perfect gift for their loved ones. We’re rushing to get everything wrapped, the perfect dinner made, and a festive outfit for the occasion to top it all off. Although our intentions are good, we could be losing sight of what’s really important.
Light up your Night: Canyon Lights at the Park
Star light, star bright, it’s once again time for Canyon Lights! Capilano Suspension Bridge’s annual holiday tradition makes a shimmering return for 2009. From December 4 – January 2, guests can experience the bridge in a new and magical light, suspended and sparkling high above the canyon. Canyon Lights is a holiday favourite for the whole family and includes glass-blowing with local artist Malcolm MacFadyen, gingerbread cookie decorating, Kid’s Corner, and the merry melodies of the holiday band.
