This may be nostalgic for some readers. Others might find it a bit cheesy by today's standards.

"Life is very full in this city, a unique blending of outdoor freedom and naturalness with civilized sophistication," he continues. "A seaport and crossroads between North America and the Pacific Rim. Always cosmopolitan, yet a city with its own distinct identity. Its own sense of being."
