They are known as "snowbirds". Every year as winter approaches, the "snowbirds" leave the cold regions of Canada and the US to migrate towards the sunnier climes of the Southern States of California, Arizona and Florida.

These "snowbirds" are baby-boomers, born after the war, who have retired in the last few years. They have the necessary money and good health to be able to travel freely.

These "migrating birds" are a godsend for Florida. Thanks to their presence, the southern-most US State is faring better in the crisis and the real-estate market is stable. And far from the distant snow and the harsh Canadian winters, the "snowbirds" experience a carefree "joie de vivre".
