Cruise – Curacao

The third stop was Curacao.  We docked in Willemstad.  Curacao is a dutch island off the coast of Venezuela. The buildings were all inspired by Dutch tradition. Walking from the ship to town you are forced to walk through an old fort, and this was looking through an opening they used to fire canons from.

In that picture, you can see a bridge going over the inlet.  This is a “Swinging” bridge, in that it actually pivots to allow boat traffic to pass by.
