The Land of a Thousand Rainbows




Antigua is known for its 365 beaches; one for each day of the year. But spending time here, one quickly notices the rainbows. During this time of the year, there are daily rain showers that pass over the island. They are small showers only lasting a few minutes as the clouds coming off the ocean get a chance to drop their burdens. The sun is always shining somewhere through the partly cloudy skies and this produces rainbows. You can see three or four every day. They come in different intensities and shapes from a little segment to a complete horizon-to-horizon arc. They're just another thing that makes living here interesting.
