2: Looking west down Havenstraat. Pink building is the Royal Plaza.

3: A lizard sunny on a post watched me while I waited for the woman that owns the place I was staying to show up. Their local name is Lagadishi. There were lots of them around.

4: The front of Lagadishi Apartments [no longer in business] in the morning light.

5: My apartment was the one in the back. More private than the front one. Behind the yellow wall is my outdoor kitchen.

6: Arashi Beach. The California Lighthouse is in the background.

7: Looking south from the California Sand Dunes. Palm Beach is in the distance. No sand on these sand dunes. Just rocks.

9: California Lighthouse. But you can't go up it. :(

10: On the flats east of the lighthouse.

11: Further along the windward coast someone has put the stones in little piles. This looking northwest.

12: More of the stones put in little piles. This looking southeast.

14: I pass some Melocactus macracanthos (?) cacti on my walk up Ceroe Grandi.

15: 360+ panorama from Ceroe Grandi. As the view comes out from the hill you have Oranjestad way in the distance. Then the high rises of Palm Beach are noticeable. Then the lighthouse can be found.

16: Looking southeast along the coast.

17: One of the Bocas along the coast. You can see a shelter someone built along the left. And my bicycle makes an appearance.

23: Walking up to Natural Bridge.

24: Looking under Natural Bridge.

25: East of Natural Bridge. Looking down on a boca. I followed the map and took a rough road through the rocks. I should have biked across the flat plains below and carried my bike across the sand in the gap.

26: Some boca along the coast.

27: Looking back along the coast.

28: Boca Daimari. (?)

29: Boca Ketu. (?)

38: Looking at the beach action at Baby Beach. In the panorama, which is next, this will be the center of the image.

39: Panorama of Baby Beach.

40: Panorama from the Seroe Colorado Lighthouse hill. As the view comes out from the hill you have the Cabez Reef. Then the Dunes. Then Baby Beach. Seroe Colorado is in front of the refinery. When the view is looking north up the east coast, you will see a low yellow building. That's the prison.

41: Looking back at Boca Grandi, a popular kite board area.

42: There is rock climbing on those cliffs.

43: You can't read the sign. But it says that this is an artillery range and to not cross when there are lights or a red flag.
