Get your family outside this May Long Weekend The Flying Couponer

Get your family outside this May Long Weekend

For many of us, the May long weekend is much more than a 3-day weekend. It represents warmer days, sunshine, and the beginning of new adventures. We can now trade our boots for sandals and ignore the oven in favor of the BBQ. I could not be more excited to welcome this nice weather.

It is also definitely nice to have Monday off during the May long weekend as it gives us more time to enjoy what our country has to offer. Take this opportunity to discover or rediscover some of our national treasures and create family memories that will last forever.

Here are a few ideas to help you make the best out of your May long weekend:

Go hiking or cycling at Gatineau Park, the National Capital Region’s Conservation Park. These beautiful heritage sites will connect you with nature and all its positive benefits.

Check out RiverRun Rafting and Wilderness Resort in the Ottawa Valley to experiment the thrill of water rafting.

Travel through the spectacular San Juan Islands to watch whales, sea lions and seals. The Wildlife Discovery Tour in Jasper, Alberta will familiarized you with the marine ecosystem and a wildlife guide on board will answers all your questions.

Venture over to the Cabot Trail on Cape Breton Island, Nova Scotia. From kayaking to hiking and to whale watching, this scenic destination is the perfect place to be during the May long weekend.

After all the fun adventures, I like to use Rub A535â„¢ for all my sore muscles. It really works well and makes me feel better. The Maximum Strength Heating Cream get rid of my pain really fast. Until the next adventure… So whether you are going hiking or whale watching, get your family outside this May Long Weekend and enjoy some fresh air!

Happy May long weekend everyone!

    We love heading outside, even if it’s not a long weekend. A long weekend is nice because it gives us time to recover.

    We had a great family May long weekend. We spent it camping and walked about Banff, and went to Calaway park.

    Happy Long weekend! It feels like we’ve been waiting so long for this long weekend to arrive where we can actually spend a big chunk of it outside!

    I’m still unsure as to what we’re doing. Most likely fireworks.

    I need some Rub A535 today! I ran in the Sporting LIfe 10K to support Camp Ooch! What a busy Mother’s Day. I hope the long weekend is full of relaxation!

    The Cabot Trail is such a lovely place to visit and explore. Maybe, we will have to visit again this Long Weekend.
