The changing colors, crisp air and yes, even pumpkin spice lattes, are some of the cues that the fall season has officially arrived! After what seemed like the longest summer ever, it's time to get out and enjoy some autumn activities. Apple picking is one of the ultimate fall past times. Just imagine bringing home a bag of apples and filling your house with the smells of home-baked apple pie. Next, it's time for Halloween. Although there may be less trick-or-treaters out in costume, you can still decorate your house and get in the spooky spirit. It's a beautiful season around the world, with the fall foliage in full effect. Before the bitter cold of winter sets in, make sure you take in some of the striking colors of autumn around the world.
