The dark clouds loomed over the island from the moment I woke up this morning at 6.30am. Another rainy day on the island has started, but it feels cozy and winter like (I know - if you live anywhere considered the "north" you find my concept of winter outrageous - and you may even want to come down to the island, despite the rain, purely for the warmer temperatures). I love this time of year in Curacao. It is less warm, the island is covered by a lush green color and I can wear my long sleeved white shirts again.
