Today it was a perfect day for taking pictures at Curacao. This morning I went to Seaquarium Beach to take some beautiful pictures for the next Curacao Calendar. The sky was perfect blue.

At the end of the evening the sky was still blue and cloudless, so I went to Otrobanda to photograph the Handelskade. I was stunned by the bright colours of the Penha Building – a part of the Handelskade -.

Zhané is selling Curacao souvenirs of Memento Vivi during the street market in Punda {and no, the doll is not for sale!}

On April 30, the Dutch celebrate Queen’s Day. It is a national holiday to commemorate the birthday of Queen-mother Juliana. It is by far the most widely celebrated holiday in the kingdom of the Netherlands. Curacao – as part of the Kingdom – has its own way to celebrated Queen’s day. A little bit typical dutch {wearing orange clothing} mixed with krioyo stuff. This year, there are a lot of activities – all most too much, I think -, like food festivals, drag races, softball games, dance parties… Memento Vivi has chosen to join the street market in down-town Punda.

Curacao is the most beautiful island in the Caribbean. I think. It has everything to make your trip the best you ever had. If you’re looking for white beaches and crystal clear turquoise water, rich history and unique architecture; you’re at the right spot. Oh, and don’t worry about the weather… Curacao has a warm and sunny climate all year round!

{There is so much to see and do on Curacao and I only may choose ten??}

1. Visit the beaches at Banda’Bou. You will be stunned looking at the crystal clear water. Occasionally you may see dolphins swimming along the coasts;

2. Experience and learn about more than 300 varieties of herbs and plants from Curacao in Dinah Veeris’ Botanic & Historic Garden. Here you can also buy Dinah Veeris’ products, which are home made with much love and dedication;

3. Enjoy the distinct historical architecture of Scharloo. This quarter of Willemstad consists of beautiful mansions, built in the classicist style by rich Jewish families during the 18th century. It is a reminder of the of a golden period in the history of Curacao;

4. Climb the highest hill on Curacao – the Christoffelberg – in the biggest national nature park of Curacao. Also known as Mount St Christoffel. It is an enjoyable climb with views across the forest to the coast in all directions. An early start and strong walking shoes are recommended;

5. Take a hike at Jan Thiel. A unique area with its variety of salt lake ponds, lagoons, cliffs and panoramic views. There are different trails. Also excellent for biking;

6. Go sunbathing at Seaquarium Beach with its palm trees and white sand. It has a good selection of shops, bar, restaurants, and facilities for water sports. Ideal for children. The place to be {seen};

7. Enjoy the tremendous power of water at Shete Boka. The rugged coast of Boka Shete with its crashing waves is accentuated by beautiful bays and caves that are half immersed in water. The terrain is quite rough, be sure to wear good walking shoes;

8. Meet the fascinating ostriches at the Curacao Ostrich Farm. You can touch them, feed them even ride them {for real daredevils only}. Every hour a safari truck will take you on a remarkable tour through the farm corals. All you have to do is announce yourself at Restaurant Zambezi.

9. Catch Captain Goodlife’s watertaxi at Santa Cruz and go diving or snorkeling at Boka Santu Pretu. This beach is off the beaten track and only accessible by sea of a road through a idyllic and shadowy forest. It differs from other beaches with its black sand;

10. Don’t forget the best Aloe Vera of the world found at The Curacao Aloe Vera Plantation. Discover the secrets of Aloe Vera for yourself and enjoy the entertaining tour of the plantation and the production plant.

photography parade Seú 2009 Curacao © Memento Vivi

Today, the day after Easter, Curacao was celebrating Seú, the annual harvest festival. A vibrant and colourful parade with approximately eighty groups went through the main streets of Otrobanda, the east side of Willemstad. While they paraded, they sung and danced on music that has its origins in African culture.

In the next edition {releasing date 15 April ‘09} of online magazine Cpost more pictures of the Seú-parade.

Taking pictures for the Curacao Calendar 2010 at the Hato Plains. Today the sky was perfect blue, which made the rust-coloured soil of the Hato Plains even more beautiful.

I was wondering… If your heart was a product like a plugin for wordpress. A plugin that would promiss you to get more emotions and love after you’d installed it. Would Neil Gaiman install it?

I would, although it would be easy to deactivate it from time to time.
