Toronto is bitterly cold in the winter, but Vancouver is much nicer. But still, we have a lot of months where the temperature hovers around freezing, the clouds darken the sky, and the cold, cold rain pelts down day and night.

But starting around now (April) and going until early October, the weather improves, the sun starts to show himself more than the clouds, and I ride my bike home from work along the sea wall, and I get to see that view in the photograph several times a week.
