Interesting, NW! I do think there's some genetic tolerance for different climates that occurs. But no matter who you are and who your ancestors are, if you're not used to the southern sun, you'll burn in 20 minutes or so here during the warmer months of the year. Even during the winter if you don't watch it. Just being this much closer to the equator makes a huge difference.

I'm as intolerant of the cold as you are when you come to Florida. A lot of it too is just what you're used to. It certainly takes time to adapt to something really different!
