The day is gray and the rain is constant, alternating between a steady spritz and flooding downpours. In the hot and humid Riviera Maya a bit of rain is often welcome as a cool, refreshing reprieve from the blazing sun. But, five days into the dreary weather and we’re all feeling a bit stir crazy. When will the sun come back out? When will the bronzed bodies scatter the beach again? When will we spot the windsurfers and paddle surfers skimming along the sapphire and turquoise sea? The weather forecast looks bleak. Storm clouds are expected to hover over Playa del Carmen for at least another week.
Yet, ironically enough, we captured a sweet little rainbow just before this relentless tropical storm swept onto coast. We like to think of the “arcoiris” as nature’s little promise that we have green, lush days of sunny tropical paradise awaiting just beyond the thunderhead.
