The pandemic changed how we do many things in our lives, including how and where we can meet friends and have a good time. While it is important to be mindful of other people and maintain safe practices, it is also important to have fun with ur friends.
Therefore, we need to find a way to combine the two without putting other people at risk. Here are a few spots to consider the next time you want t have fun in a gathering with friends.
Drive-in Cinema
A drive-in cinema is a great idea if you and your friends are looking to have some fun outdoors. All you have to do is drive to your preferred destination and watch your favorite movies.
A drive-in cinema is great because, in areas where physical contact is still a problem, you can stay outdoors without really having to be in physical contact with each other.

Nature Walk Trails
Walking achieves 2 things. You get to catch up with your friends and enjoy beautiful sceneries. You also get to work out. It is a great cardiovascular activity that will boost your immunity and keep you and your friends healthier.
You can decide to stick to a trail if you are in a position to and carry picnic items for a fun and adventurous day.
Visit Your Local Beach
If you live near a beach, then you really don’t need any motivation to visit it.
Beach days are usually filled with fun for anyone who knows how to have fun on a beach. You and your friends could decide to go swimming if it is safe or carry your pickleball paddles and play on the beach. Some beaches allow cooking and if yours does, there is no problem carrying some food for a BBQ.
Bike Ride Trails
Biking is like walking but with added fun and more activity. Get yourself on a bike trail and you will be able to go further, have more fun and experience new things.
Unlike walking, biking will require that all your friends know how to ride your bikes. Even if some of your friends don’t know how to ride one, you can take some time and teach them. This will likely increase the level of fun you have as friends and you will have something to bond over.
Your Back Yard
If you have a backyard, then this might be the best time to make use of it. There are many activities that do not really require too much space or preparation that can happen in your backyard. For example,
- You can have your friends over for some games. Consider playing outdoor games such as giant Jenga, corn hole, and many more.

- You can set up an outdoor cinema using a projector and a large sheet
- You can set up a picnic
