Solution
The correct option is A even though
A conjunction is a word used to connect words, clauses or phrases.
Compound conjunctions are those which may have two or three parts and they always go together like 'as soon as', 'as well as' etc.
'Even though' is used for emphasizing that a particular situation will remain the same no matter what happens. It is used to mention 'despite the fact that'. The given sentence shows the fact of bad weather but they went out for a walk.
'Therefore' is used mostly in argumentation when one statement logically follows from another.
'So' is used to talk about clauses of result or decision.
