Well I guess you are not too concern with planning this trip with your anniversary date. There always seems to be a thread on here on where to go. I love going in August, there is more sunshine at that time on most northern shores. I have to tell you though every year I say to myself I have to get back here during winter to see the Albatrose and whales. I also want to see those big waves. Spring and Fall there are great festivals from Film to Ethnic to Historical. What are you going to do? You miss something with each season you choose.
