Atmosphere

Atmosphere is great you know- weather is almost always overcast with the occasional squib of sunlight breaking through, so tanning is guarenteed. Bemused onlookers plentiful often cheer when you wipe out or get hit on the head. Water dark and murky adding to the sense of mystery, views of buildings evoke warmth and that's it.
