Our family enjoyed an excursion to the historical site at Fort Langley. They had many hands-on activities to teach about the past, such as barrel-making and blacksmith work.
The kids loved the gold-panning too, because they actually found some “nuggets” of gold.
The village makes a rather Christmasy jaunt, including a craft fair, candy shop, bookstore (with built-in coffee shop),
and a bit of antique window shopping.
I highly recommend Fort Langley as a fun, old-fashioned trip.
