@happypat It must be nice to have view of the ocean from the houses but the downside is the salty spray from the waves. (David being an engineer says it would rust his tools in the garage). The other downside is that people walk close to your house. We live a couple of blocks back from the ocean so more private. I wouldn't want people peering at us as we sit on our patio etc.
We usually walk around 6 km, sometimes more and sometimes less.
@onewing I did wonder whether you walked in front of these houses or behind….you would be dying to look in as you walked past but probably kept your head looking forward! 🤣. I wouldn’t like to live near the sea just because it frightens me…I would be awake all night waiting for a tsunami!
@happypat Next time I walk along our local waterfront I will take a photo of how close we are able to walk to the houses. The front of the houses are facing the street but it is the back of the houses and their patio areas that we see as we walk by. So very often we see people sitting on their patios having a barbeque etc. I wouldn't like that if it was my house though, especially if I had paid quite a lot of money for a waterfront property.
