Queensborough Perimeter Trail & River Walk offer views of Downtown New Westminster, the Fraser River and Poplar Island. There is a popular bakery there if we want to pick up pastries/cakes/muffins for a snack. I've not been there myself but go by Google Map reviews on "Take The Cake Patisserie, 150-1110 Ewen Ave, New Westminster". Next door "Kalash Indian Kitchen" has good reviews for their samosas and fish pakora, etc. And two pizza joints in the same block.

The maximum number of participants is six. If you are on the going list, but change your mind, please update your RSVP so we know the group size.
