We bid farewell to the One Happy Island but not before we got our fill of Dutch pancakes. This (and the cheese selections) were really the only indicators I found of the Dutch heritage. After the boys made fun of my pancake choice in Amsterdam, I vowed I would order nothing with cheese this time. I lied. I got the pancakes with ham, mushrooms, and Gouda and it was fantastic!
We took to the streets of Oranjestad to window shop. That was short- lived, though, because we are out of money. I actually thought everything downtown would look like this; I was wrong and it was a big let down to see only three brightly colored buildings.
The water was beautiful. The sand was soft. The weather was perfect. The real world and a credit card bill awaits us. Now if we can just get back home without too many delays.
I can’t wait to plan our next get-a-way.
