Sands of the Caribbean

While on the motorbike, Daddy saw a great place near to our resort to go urbexing! Looking at it from the outside we thought it was a hotel that had never been completed, or that had been abandoned. When we got in however, there was a completely different story. We found out that the building had been used as the headquarters for an online internet casino!

Motorbiking!

While Mommy and I had been walking around in the center of town, Ashlynn and Daddy rented a motor bike and took a long ride to an ostrich farm. Ashlynn got bit by an ostrich as well as feeding them from her hand.

Dress Shopping...

While walking around Curacao I joked about trying to find a dress for the Bye Bye Blues (the end of year 9 disco) and we walked into multiple stores, but none of them had what we wanted. We finally saw a cocktail dress store and we went in. I found two dresses that I really liked.....here they are....



I liked the blue dress better, but one of the straps was broken so I got the red one for a bargain of 28 euros!

Cruising around the center!

Although Ashlynn didn't want to go, Mommy and I had a great time walking around the town center. 


Picturesque waterfront


Such an awesome infinity pool on a man made beach

This bridge is so cool, it swings completely to the side so that boats can go through. To get across when it's open you have to take a ferry!

Epic sign for the ferry!

Jumping off a Bridge!

The Curacao Aquarium was an island off the coast connected to the mainland by a bridge. We had fun jumping off the bridge into the warm waters below.
