- The sun was like a laser beam bearing down on his skin.
- It was hot, muggy, and the heat of the day was oppressive.
- Marin’s eyes hurt from the blinding effects of the sun reflecting from the beach white sand and off the gleaming ocean water.

- Children were constantly running back and forth across the beach with their noisy, squeaky beach toys.
- The wind is continually blowing fine grains of sand under Tower 13, and that would pile up like anthills.
