Willemstad, Curacao
This beautiful central government building graces the mouth of St. Anna Baai and regulates police affairs, post, education, aviation, public health and telecommunications. This image was sketched from across the bay where Lillian was having her hair braided- a 2.5 hour process. I am glad to have finally visited the island since years ago it was a toss up between Curacao and the Grandines for an extensive diving trip. Although this island is architecturally very beautiful and the people seem genuinely pleasant, I am sure the right choice was made.
