Yeah I guess I would consider a “park” to be “any public outdoor place”. For some steps leading down to the water and a bench it would be a small park, or possibly a “public access site” but that’s still a type of park.

And yes, I do live in one of those “ice holes” haha. But to be honest, when I went to look it up I thought the numbers would be closer because you’re at a similar latitude but I forgot just how mild of a climate Europe really has.
