Smilingcat, after going to Hawai'i on 2 different trips I realized that despite the beauty of the place and tropical fecundity with ocean views, I realized that I'm not a hot tropical climate kind of person. I can't even swim, so beach towns have an appeal up to a certain point.
But certainly I like balmier areas of Canada. Right now, it's snowing lightly again.. According to long time Albertans, it's normal to have several days of snow in May /June annually. It's freakin' tiring but hey, I could have ended up 1,000 kms. north in CAnadian far Arctic where I was once interviewed for a job.
Unbelievably we just had a BIke to Work Day ...yesterday. For strange unknown reasons, the guy who steers this annual event, always has it in early May. It took considerable effort by the municipality for him to stop hosting it in Apr.It's just still too cold to grow the event to a massive scale, if he insists on this early crazy date.
After living in 3 different regions of Canada....I feel as if I've learned abit more about the soul of Canada, where I've always been.
