The Sights of Christmas

Beautiful displays of Christmas can be seen all over the city. Some displays are large like the huge Christmas tree at Broadway church and some are small and intricate like a Christmas village display.

Take some time to visit and enjoy the sights of Christmas in Vancouver.

Did You Know - Vancouver

Did you know that Vancouver's climate is considered oceanic or marine west coast and its summer months are dry (mostly dry). The average July high temperature is 21 C. The winters in Vancouver are usually rainy and the average low temperature in January is 5 C.

The truth be told we have tons of rain in the winter time. Our consolation is that we don't get much snow. I guess that will have to do!

Vancouver Christmas Market

The Vancouver Christmas Market is back for the its 3rd festive year.  This market is conveniently located on the Plaza at the QE Theater. Take some time to stroll through the Christmas Village and check out all the vendors offering European Seasonal wares. Take time to savour the European flavours of Christmas. The mulled wine is tasty and and warms you up nicely.

The Vancouver Christmas Market runs from November 24 to December 24.

Wishing For A White Christmas

Somehow it doesn't seem like Christmas without snow. Vancouver has so much rain during the winter holidays. Every so often we get a white Christmas and when that happens the city comes to a quiet stand still.

Other than the fact that we can't drive worth a darn in snow, it still is beautiful. Here's to wishing for a white Christmas and a safe Christmas.
