"Is walking to the parking garage" is a clause because it contains a subject ("walking") and a verb ("is").
"We had fun" is a clause because it contains a subject ("we") and a verb ("had"). A phrase, on the other hand, does not contain both a subject and a verb.

Phrases and clauses are both groups of two or more words that convey ideas. However, there is an easy way to tell if you're using a phrase or a clause. The main difference is that clauses have both a subject and a predicate; phrases do not. Phrases are part of clauses.
They both describe a part of the larger sentence. However, a phrase does NOT have a verb it is. A Clause has a VERB in it. e.g. King Charles(III) , who is King of England ; contains a clause , because it contains the verb 'is' . King Charles(III) , the King of England ; is a phrase. No verb 'is'!!!!
