Short (business) trip to Palm Beach, Florida

First week in May, I was away for a few days attending a catastrophe modeling vendor's client conference at the Breakers resort in Palm Beach, FL. Although my daily schedule was very full with meetings and sessions, I did get a chance to stroll through the grounds during the breaks and a few moment of spare time and take in the beautiful scenery. I was lucky to be assigned a beach-front room, so I could enjoy a beautiful view and calming sound of the waves, but since the weather was hot with not only high temperatures but also very high humidity, I could not keep my balcony door open for long. Living in Seattle, I had forgotten how hot and humid it can get in the southeast in the summer, without any relief at nighttime!
