 curacao-crab Good afternoon all, just taking a break from my busy afternoon of taking photos of Hans van Baalen. We started the day with a trip to the Curacao Naval Base. This was my first time inside and may I just say it was great! I got to see all the cool ships the Dutch Navy has including the fast little patrol boats that we see daily speeding by out in front of the Aquarium. I followed Hans around all over as he went from place to place including getting to meet and talk to some of the troops. Later we climbed aboard one of those cool little patrol boats and got a nice tour of the bay, went under the big bridge, passed by the colorful buildings of Punda and then got dropped off in Otrabanda, again it was great! We then went to the Avila Hotel where he met with the local Rotary Club. I only stayed long enough to get a nice group photo and then raced home to download photos and do a little work on them as they had to be sent to a local paper in Holland ASAP!
So that’s about it, I am being picked up again in a few minutes to go back to the Avila for another photo shoot and will be there the rest of the evening.
Your photo is of a beautiful crab I found the other morning at Saint Joris. He was really defensive and quite aggressive so I kept my distance and just watched as he crawled around in the mud, I looked for a name but so far haven’t found one.
Till tomorrow, Barry
