I'm beginning to understand why I've been told, on numerous occasions, that people don't get anything done during the summer in Vancouver.

Over the last few days, the weather has been absolutely perfect: mid-to-high teens through most of the day, clear skies, and lots of sunshine. I spent this afternoon playing tennis with some friends, the other day I went for a long walk at the beach, yesterday I went for a long walk by another beach. All of this is wonderful, but it's hard to focus on getting work done!

Long story short, I'm glad to be in Vancouver for the summer. I don't usually get anything done in the summer, so I might as well have lots of fun while I'm not doing it!
