又到周末了干什么好呢？下面就为你列出10件周末可以做的事。其中既有户外型的，又有适合都市人的；不论你是约会，还是欢度家庭时光，都能从中发现不错的活动建议哦！
1. Take a Walk Around the Lake
湖畔漫步
Find a lake with a walking path and bring your partner or your canine companion. Enjoy the views, get some exercise and feed the ducks. Then, stop for some iced tea at the lakeside restaurant.
跟伴侣或爱犬去湖畔散散步，欣赏风景、伸展胳膊、喂喂鸭子，然后再在湖边小店喝杯冰茶。
2. Go On a Hike
去远足
Many areas have hikes of varying lengths within city limits or a few miles outside of the city itself. You can choose shorter, more level hikes or head to the mountains and make it an all-day affair. Don’t forget good shoes, water, sunblock, and a hat.
许多城市边缘或离市区几英里的位置都有远足的地方。你可以选择短程但刺激的远足，或花一天时间去登山。当然，别忘了准备好鞋子、水、防晒霜和帽子。
3. Go On a Bike Ride
骑游
Rent a bike from the local bike shop or ride your own. Map out a route and calculate the distance using a bicycling app on your smartphone. Take extra water and don’t forget to wear a helmet. This can be a fun activity for kids, too.
在本地车店租一辆或干脆跨上自己的车去骑游。先标好路程并算好距离，在手机里设置好骑行导航软件。多带点水，别忘了戴上头盔。这项活动也很适合小孩子哦。
4. Start a Fun, New Weekend Craft
做有趣的手工活
You know that old dresser in your room that you’ve been wanting to spruce up? Get some sandpaper, wood stain and polyurethane and turn that dresser into a beautiful piece of furniture.
是不是一直想重新装饰房间里那张旧梳妆台？那就准备好砂纸、涂料和油漆，开始行动，把它粉饰得漂漂亮亮吧！
5. Go On a Picnic
野餐
Find a local park or recreation area and bring food and games for a day of fun. Play Frisbee, horseshoes, volleyball, soccer, or take a short hike. You might be able to swim or fish, rent a paddle boat, or find a comfortable spot to read a book.
带上食物，到当地公园或休闲区痛快玩一天。飞盘、马蹄铁、排球、足球或短途远足，随你玩。或许你也愿意尝试游泳、钓鱼、划船或躲在舒服的角落看书。
6. Go to a Karaoke Bar
K歌
Sing to your favorite songs while enjoying the company of good friends. Order food, have a beverage and make a night of it.
跟好朋友去KTV唱唱喜欢的歌，同时享用美味的食物和饮料，度过一个开心的夜晚。
7. Read a Book then See the Movie
读书看电影
When you read a good book, chances are it’s turned into a movie. Books like Harry Potter and The Help are recent popular favorites.
当你读到一本好书时，很可能发现它也有同名电影。像《哈利波特》和《相助》就很受欢迎。
8. Go To a Tea House
去茶馆坐坐
Change it up a bit and instead of going for the coffeehouse, look for the tea house. You can sample different teas, try tea in loose leaf form or try out unusual herbal blends from all over the world.
与其去咖啡馆，不如改去茶馆吧。在茶馆，你可以品尝各种各样的茶，比如散装茶或是来自世界各地的混合花草茶。
9. Run a 5K
5千米长跑
Running in a 5K is a great way to get in shape. Often, you can participate for charity or just for fun. Either way, recruit your friends or have them cheer you on. There are even 5K’s that are kid-friendly.
5千米长跑对保持体形很有帮助。你可以加入慈善机构组织的长跑活动，或自己跑着玩儿。还有，别忘了让朋友给你加油鼓劲。另外，有些长跑运动甚至也适合小孩呢。
10. Shop Garage Sales
商店库存促销时扫货
Check your local listings and set up a route to hit a lot of garage sales in one day. This is a great opportunity to find furniture, household items and stylish clothes at incredible prices.
先看看哪些商家有促销活动，定好路线攻略，然后就集中扫货去吧。促销时能买到不少便宜的家具、家用物件或漂亮衣服。
