Curacao was a really cool place - cool port, cool vegetation, and awesome beaches. Also....flamingos! Look closely above....those are real-life flamingos!
Our destination for the day was Playa Porta Mari - a beach with crystal-clear water and fantastic snorkeling. It was definitely one of the most spectacular beaches I've ever seen.
We camped out in some shade and this was our view for the day. Not bad, eh?
We hiked up around the beach and this was our reward.... A wonderful view of Playa Porta Mari. I've never seen anything like it!
Back on the ship - where I discovered I had a nasty sunburn - we watched our sail away. Curacao had interesting Dutch-influenced architecture but the rest of the island was not all that pretty. The beaches were great, but the land itself was like a desert.
It was a wonderful day and the snorkeling was amazing. We must have spent about three hours in the water. Awesome!
