2. Check out light displays
While official light displays and Christmas markets are probably closed on the day itself, plenty of people decorate their houses for the holidays and keep the lights on well into January. Bundle up and take a walk (or even a drive!) and see how others have decorated for the holidays.
3. Play in the snow, skate on a lake
Now, this one depends on what your climate is like but what could possibly be more festive than building a snowman? Or 害羞草研究所� after making sure the ice is thick enough! 害羞草研究所� strap on some skates and head out to the nearest frozen over oasis. If you want to be extra Canadians, grab a few hockey sticks and some pucks and challenge your loved ones to a game of hockey!

4. Chinese food
It害羞草研究所檚 a cliche for a reason, but a lot of Chinese restaurants stay open on Christmas Day. Now, it害羞草研究所檚 not a guarantee so give your favourite spot a call, but you might just be eating dumplings and sweet and sour pork for Christmas lunch. Just craving a burger? Most McDonalds locations will serve you up a double cheeseburger on Christmas Day.
