Amsterdam Fun! Curacao

Curacao is a much larger island than Aruba.  It is greener and more colorful.
 The leader was getting bad headaches from the white building glaring from the ocean, and so he ordered the buildings to have color.  
 We took another tour, but this time the driver was mute.  She didn't speak unless you asked her a question.
 One of the stops was a liquor maker.  So now you know why mom and Dale were hanging out at the bar.
We sat and waited a long time for the pedestrian bridge to open.  We watched ship after ship come through hoping the bridge would move into place.  Finally we gave up and took the ferry, only to watch the bridge move as we floated on the water.
 Another stop was some caves.  Usually inside a cave it is very cool.  This cave was the opposite.  It was hot and muggy.  They did have fans along the way, which felt great.  It was a great stop.
 Dale and I took a walk along the floating bridge, actually we went about a third of the way, took the picture and walked back.
 Our ship from the floating ferry.
 A dangerous shot from our tour on the bridge.  A different angle of our ship.
Curacao was a great stop, but again what do you do for a week here?
