Honestly, not too bad, especially in the summer.
We had a lovely day, going to a children’s farm, including peacocks, enjoying some paddling pool fun, and finishing off with a trip to a cosy wine bar.
I can see the appeal. The closeness to nature, both beach and snow, is a MASSIVE WIN TODAY. The summers are lovely, albeit a little temperamental, but nothing that London forces you to deal with. Being relatively far north during summertime means that mean you are bathed in sunlight in the evenings; obviously, one must pay for this privilege in six months time.
Honestly, thus far we have had a great time. Vancouver has come up a notch in my book.
