 Curacao Sea Aquarium Good evening all, had a request this morning asking for a photo of the Curacao Sea Aquarium and where we work, so here you go!! This was taken in November of 2008, that was the last time I was up in the helicopter. The orange colored roof-tops stand out the most, that’s our five-star hotel called Royal Resorts and it’s right next door to the aquarium. The aquarium itself is surrounded by many different sized lagoons which is home to our now World famous dolphins like Tela and Pasku. This photo also shows the reef which I dive so much and still find new stuff all the time. The light blue colors are fairly shallow like 30 feet and the dark blue goes down to thousands of feet. There are some condos in the right hand corner, that’s where we lived for four years (in front of the pool) but now live just a half mile away down the street. You can kind of see some of my mountain bike trails in the green desert behind the condos, this was obviously taken back when it rained a lot. Right in the middle of the photo there is a dive shop and behind that is a hotel called Lions Dive and if you look in the parking lot you will see a big blue building, that’s our newly built Dolphin Suites Hotel. This is pretty much our World and where we spend most of our time. It’s hard to believe one man and a team of workers built this whole thing by hand from the ground up, the things a person can do if you set your mind to something!
Well today Aimee and I went back to Saint Joris and did trail work for two hours, what a workout!! We got rained on really bad when we first got there and hid under some trees, then the sun came out and it was 100% humidity, man was it hot! I was completely soaked and so muddy when we left, I think Aimee took some photos will try and get one of those out to you. At around noon I took off to try and take a panoramic photo of our big oil refinery but when I arrived there wasn’t an oil tanker to be seen, that was a first! On the way back home it started to rain again not hard but it was just enough. Not much else going on, we both worked on photos all day, Aimee was key-wording and I was sorting, that’s a full time job in itself!
See you tomorrow guys, Barry
