I swear if it was any more humid outside you would have to wear a mask with a humidty filter in order to breath. On top of that it was raining so hard that you couldnt see more then 3 feet in front of your face... so the mask would have had to be attached to an upside down snorkle or something. And the heat !!... the rain would turn into steam as soon as it hit the ground... before actually. I mean it was like walking in a turkish bath and being under a hot water fire hose at the same time. The first shower lasted for all of 15 minutes and the cows were already swimming for what little high pasture there is in Florida. And the Hotel owner told us all to get up to the third floor cuz the gators just love these kinds of storms.... now THAT was being flabergasted. The word Monsoon just dont cover it... if yer gets my meanings. Cheers RicB
