Afternoon on Key Biscayne Beach, Florida, brings blue skies and blue waters.

“Not a cloud in the sky” is not a phrase heard very often here on Miami’s Key Biscayne beach. Especially not at midday in summer. There is simply too much heat and too much water, so it is inevitably raining somewhere. But that is a trait of the tropics which one comes to love – storms dotting the horizon like scattered jewels. These storms don’t ruin the day of any beachgoers. They often stay far off shore, like in this picture, adding to the beauty of the landscape. And if they do come ashore, they are but brief showers – an excuse to grab a quick drink, and to come back to cooler sand.
