The date

At the holidays, the Inner Harbour goes gloriously overboard and you reap it. The Parliament Buildings light up every outline of themselves, the Empress glows in its particular way, and the whole spangled spectacle reflects across the harbour in a scene that should cost money but somehow does not. Get hot drinks first, walk slowly, and do the mittened lean-into-each-other thing the cold demands. Ridiculously pretty, and free. Show up.
