• Go for a walk.  Fresh air and exercise is a great way to spend time together!  There is just something refreshing about going for a walk and there is something very romantic about walking hand in hand with your loved one.
• Picnic.  If you like to base your dates around meal time, why not have a picnic together at a park or a beach or some other lovely outdoor space.  If nothing else, make a picnic meal and lay a blanket out in your backyard, watch the sunset and spend some time watching the stars together.
