Prince George, Car / Truck / Motorcycle
Last Saturday, I dropped by the farmers market in downtown Prince George and was pleased with the amount of fresh baking and vegetables that the market offered (especially for this time of year in Northern BC). All the vendors were very welcoming and happy to tell you about their business and products! The smell of home baked bannock fills the air downtown and you walk by hard to resist sweets and treats for you and the family! After going to the farmers market, I stopped into a restaurant on 3rd Avenue called Nancy O's. The breakfast menu was great and I recommend the Cinnamon Swirl French toast! Yum!! And definitely fills you up for the rest of the day! The restaurant is welcoming to families and I love the warm environment inside! The waitress was really friendly and made sure that we had the best experience at the restaurant!

Prince George, Car / Truck / Motorcycle
Located approximately 50 kilometers North of Prince George is a well drained and natural water source lake. The lake is stocked with several fish and the lake is also warm enough if you are interested in swimming or cliff jumping. The lake is often busy with people looking to catch some afternoon rays and have a picnic with the great scenery. I recommend this location for all ages, families or individuals.
Driving directions: Continue on Highway 97 North and until you see a sign for Tallus Road. Make a left onto Tallus Road and follow it over the railway tracks and around the corner. You will see a bright yellow gate that is open, make a left on that road. You can drive all the way down to the waters edge, or you can park and walk down.
