Grew up on the beach, beginning part of Buzzards Bay so salt water is in my blood. Every day in the summer was spent at the beach, just a very, very short walk, 4 houses away. Ocean water was just a part of life.
When I finally got to live near the Pacific, again, nothing out of the ordinary since I had spent so many years around water. What I did notice though, the Pacific was a heck of a lot colder than the Atlantic AND the air at the beach on the left coast didn't smell quite the same as it did on the right coast....
