Curacao 13th August till 28th of August 2010

Finally some time to update my blog so here we go, my last post was from Curacao so I will update the vacation in this post. It was really good to see Judith and Hessel and we also met their housemates Marcella and Jorge (Nicole named him "Gato" by mistake, so we just called him GATO!!:)). Their house was really big, 5 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a large living and kitchen. The location was nearby Zanzibar were we swim and snorkel almost every day. We also visited of course the famous beach of Curacao, Mambo Beach. Furthermore of course the colored houses with the Dutch architecture along Willemstad's harbour. Nicole and I did also swim with dolfins at the Sea Acquarium Beach, that was a fantastic experience, what a feeling to swim with these animals. Judith filmed the hole sessions, so we have the memory on tape. If you want to go shopping you can go to the Riffort in Willemstad. Of course we went diving in Curacao but first I bought a Sealife DC1200 Elite in Willemstad for taking underwater pictures and movies. The underwater world in the Caribean is fantastic we saw seaturtles, barracuda's, water snakes and of course lot's of Nimo's :). I took lots of pictures and movies. I will try to put them on my blog. During our stay we did some trips like "Klein Curacao" with the Mermaid, full moonwalk and going to the top of the Christoffelberg. Is was a fantastic vacation and if I had the change I would go back in a minute. Movies and pictures will be posted soon.
