Warm day for Carnival this year. We were towards the end of the parade. They had walked for about 5 hours by the time they arrived at our location. It seemed like everyone was having a great time still. They sure know how to crank the music up on their semi truck stages! Glad weContinue reading “Carnival time in Curaçao”

Sometimes it is good to take the road less travelled. On Valentines Day this year we found this old bridge and trail area in the Piscadera area. Upon first look it was fairly overgrown. Turned into a fun short little trail back to Piscadera Bay. Had a great day.

Turns out that when the weather is nice you can see the mountains of Venezuela across the sea. They are around thirty miles away.

It is really nice being close to the ocean. It is a short walk to the ocean every morning. This is the part of the ocean I go to. Usually for about an hour every morning. It is just down the ocean from Avila Beach. Really got lucky with this place and the great location.
