Willemstad, Curaçao

Pausing briefly to take in part of the two-mile runway, we continued to climb the 49 steps up to the entrance to Hato Caves. A distinctive odor alerted us to the presence of the current inhabitants. Temperature and humidity soared as we descended past pools of water and observed algae growing up walls wherever splashes of light can be found. After, we cooled off in a gentle current along Mambo Beach. High salinity provided extra buoyancy for an effortless soak under the Caribbean sun.Weiterlesen
