Received from Odessa. Vist her wonderful blog at Tea's of Time
It is 7.15am on a very sunny Tuesday morning, am listening to a wonderful compilation of DJ Faizal De Jongh, which plays on the radio in Lebanon. Great music to get started in the morning. What fun do you listen to?
Smile loads.

Hoogstraat, Otrabanda
Curacao
You cannot help but smile when you drive into the Hoogstraat. Though there is still some construction going on, the colours of the buildings will bring out happiness in anyone. So this morning, as I stood infront of the entrance, I took a few pictures to share with you. ( These were taken with my phone.... as you might notice my my photography skills are from far great but even less so with a phone. I hope you like them though).
Have a wonderful weekend.
Smile loads.

hello monday
a bit from otrabanda
Image from here
Since last week I have been working in the neighbourhood of Otrabanda; part of the historic capital Willemstad (though quite small compared to others, it has however served as an important one throughout history). Both sides of Willemstad are filled with (newly restored) monuments, most of them now housing offices instead of families. Their sheer size and colours make it impossible not to admire them.
Across from my office there is a building which looks much like the one in the picture. I will check later on if it is indeed the same one. Somehow you feel more connected to the history and legacy of the island when driving through the streets of Otrabanda every morning. It is a nice feeling.

Images via various sources
Tonight we are rocking the Taj (so to speak of course) it is part of our (hmm monthly) dinner parties at the house of my one my friends and tonight we are being spoiled with the delights of Indian food. So today, in light of our dinner some wonderful images filled with colour and spirit.
Have a spendid day
