what seems so normal to one person can be extraordinary to another.
For sure--I had part of a game show on TV while I was getting ready to go out. One of the questions was where did people get their first kiss. One of the responses was "at the beach". This is a response that hardly anybody in my part of the world would even think of. We do have places where sandy areas lead to water, but we say we're at the lake, or at the river.
