The Best Beach?

Disclaimer- These photos are from pre-pandemic 2020.

It is hard to pick a favorite beach in Curacao.  Each one had something to recommend it.  

• Jan Thiel- closest to house, but most crowded
• Mambo- lots of convenience, beach beds
• Playa Lagun- best snorkeling, maybe too rustic
• Kokomo- bluest water, best food

That's right our final beach day was at Kokomo Beach!  Three out of four of the adults on this trip are pilots (me, I'm the non-pilot in the group).  And all three of them served together at Grissom Air Reserve Base which is right outside of Kokomo, Indiana.  In fact, the Bushes live not too far from Kokomo.  So of course, we love a beautiful, blue beach named Kokomo!

We decided to just rent chairs here because the beach beds were really far back from the water.  The restaurant next to the beach serves some of the best fries I've ever had.  Yeah, I think Kokomo is my favorite.  

Call Moana! I found the heart of the ocean!

The beginning of my sea glass collection.

You know what would make this beach day better? A cup of coffee. These kids get up EARLY.

Don't mind his face, he asked to be buried.

I will never not take a picture of my drink and the ocean. Sorry, not sorry.

This platform was actually very unstable, but worth swimming out to for the photo-op.

I wonder if the island misses us as much as we miss it.
