Another beautiful beach. Picture taken from a watch tower nearby.

It kept coming back to the window and wanting to go in. You think it was looking for some AC?

It is like the painter bought his supplies from Costco. You know, you have to buy a big pallet of at least six colors…

This morning, Sharmila and I were strolling around in Otrobanda in Willemstad, when we saw this hoarding giving details of the building coming up behind it. Check out the insurance company. My gut reaction was that it is a local company deriving the word India from the Indies. Then I saw the map. In Curacao?? Wow!!

Yesterday, we went to check a place that was reputed to be the haunt of wild flamingos. Except, we found none. Today, we woke up and made an early morning foray to the same spot. This time we succeeded!

Those wild flamingos were busy eating something from the salt pans in Jan Kok. Did not seem to mind human beings near them.

We were enjoying a cocktail by the water when the bridge started swinging open!! The sequence of pictures here is when it was closing back up again. It is an incredible sight to see the whole bridge swing on one end completely to let ships go by and then close up again!

A Curacao drink in Curacao (or as they say in Papiamento – Kòrsou)

The colorful buildings reminded us of Burano in Italy, Valladolid in Mexico and the Azores in the Atlantic Ocean.

Enough of blue colors. Now for some red and orange!!
