If rainy days and Mondays always get you down, fear not because rainy days in Miami can be as fun as sun-kissed beach days.
Lady Gaga and Ariana Grande might have been thinking about Miami when they asked the weather Gods to “Rain On Me“. That’s because rainy days in Miami offer a deluge of exciting things to do for all age groups. In fact, to coin another much-loved song, after experiencing a wet weekend in Miami, you might wish it would rain every time you came to town.
