Christmas events around Vancouver
There's Bright Lights at Stanley Park, the Grouse mountain thing and Burnaby Village museum christmas thing...Anybody know of any other christmas things going on around town (and the lower mainland?).
Maybe a website that lists a bunch of things? I've searched, but can't find anything. Thanks!
