The beauty of Curacao and photos of Aruba


I thought Curacao was charming and the color was fabulous...and loads of color. They told us that people painted their homes bright colors to frighten the evil spirits...so far that has worked for me with my quilts!

Is there anything more lovely that lovely blue?

Well, maybe lovely orange....next to blue (a nice compliment for sure!)

Below is the trolley that took us on a nice tour

The lovely church below was part of the tour....so many beautiful details and clean, a nice place for God's house-I gave thanks for being there with my husband and new friends

More color in the beautiful windows and statues


Fun artwork on the side of the buildings....

Setting up the fruit stands...even their tarps are lovely colors

From here on down are photos of Aruba
Here is our ship docked in Aruba and it looked so unbelievably big!
More resorts on beautiful water....it looked so unreal and yet wonderful-God certainly makes things we take forgranted for beautiful and different if we only take the time to look

Just one of the many yaughts (big boats)we saw....where do these people get their money other than breaking the law? Maybe selling fruit or carved wood....
The color and shapes everywhere were inspiring.... and fun to look at

Aruba...hot ,humid and their car on the roof top. Note the darling Dutch girl and boy on the left you could stand and get your photo taken with....there was a woman waiting to pounce on your for money, so we just took photos from a distance...

This building is in Aruba and they had all kinds of stuff on the roof...I don't get it
