No one is at the restaurants. No one is at shows. WHY? Everyone's at the beach. Perhaps not in the beach, but they are close enough. To be honest, the water is just getting too gross for me, especially swimming in the Vancouver beaches, like English Bay and Jericho.
Lakes I can do. My wife and I have yet to take a trip past the city in any direction to a more secluded, cleaner, body of water this year. But usually beaches + lots of people = gross.
If you go to the beach, do you ever swim in it. How dirty does a beach have to be in order for even YOU to not swim in it!
