Every town seems to have one of these, a park and a public washroom.
Brekkie is a word.

Brekkie is a word - I saw it on a McDonalds sign - they are open for Brekkie at 5 am! They even have an upscale menu at the McCafe. Other signs that this is paradise are the Krispy Kreme donuts, Gloria Jeans coffee ($3.55 yikes), Rum and coke on tap at the local pub and Drive through beer stores. Beer is a whole different world - here a pot of gold is, a 285ml glass of 3.5% xxxx beer. And if you get that in a stubby, you can use your refreezable jel filled stubby cooler.

The only place that seems crowded is the beach - it is striking how few people are around, on the roads or in the small towns away from the coast.

Just outside of my door. I could walk over and get a cold beer from their fridge - or a few steps more to get to the pub.
