Fresh air is a must for an urban dweller, so be sure to take some time to clear your mind and expand your lungs at the local parks.  Popular spots include the historic St. James Park, or Berczy Park, both of which will get your daily step count up and keep neighbourhood residents in motion.  As you wander, be sure to find more new hotspots and dining options to check out, and take note of new arrivals!
