Curacao (pronounced Coor-A-Sow) is a tiny island in the Dutch Antilles. It's a wind swept place with beautiful sheer cliffs and an ocean view to match. It's not known for it's tourist's attractions and the only reason I was there was for a plane layover. I was on my way to Venezuela after leaving Trinidad. I was able to spend 4 hours there, mostly around the airport. The folks were nice enough, but I don't think I would want to retire there.
