At Ahimsa Media the winter holidays are all about relaxing and spending time laughing and having fun with the folks we love. It is for this reason that Lori and I take a break from the pre-holiday craziness each year to laugh, be silly and shoot our holiday card together.

This year’s shoot was even more delightful than usual, as we were fortunate enough to shoot at Burnaby Village Museum, which is an absolutely magical place. For two storytellers, this was a wonderful present to the senses as we were surrounded by rich stories from the history of BC . Talk about inspirational!
If you haven’t been, you must go. Burnaby Village Museum is a living history museum, with historic interpretors dressed in period clothing spinning tales of BC’s history. Having worked in such environments in my teens and twenties, I can tell you I have discerning eye and am not easily impressed when it comes to interpretive sites. Burnaby Village Museum impresses me. It is a place of magic.
To experience a bit of the magic for yourself you can visit the Museum from noon until 8 pm each day, up until January 2nd, 2011. Who knows you may even see Rudolph. He was after all created there.

After that the Museum doesn’t reopen until May 2011, except for special event openings. Hoping they host their scavenger hunt again in February and March.
