After having spent the last 17 years in Narnia, the spoons came out through the wardrobe provided by Wardrobe Airways 5 days ago, and it appears that time has stood still while we were away. But that's cool, coz we were then able to continue our journey through Latin-America, tho lately it has evolved into lazy days in the Caribbean.
If yer ever thinking about going to the Caribbean, Grenada or St. Vincent are prolly some of yer best options. Both countries are amazingly appealing and has some great possibilities. Grenada even has some awesome personalities, like the man who was so entusiastic about our waterbottles, that he loudly proclaimed that he also had some biiig waterbottles. Good for you dude, good for you!
After Narnia, the spoons flew from St. Georges to Curacao, where we have spent the last few days. What can we say about Curacao? Huge f***ing mistake...! We were originally trying to find the cheapest and easiest way back down to South-America, and this seemed like a good option. It wasn't... And we both regret ever coming here. On the positive side tho, we never have to go here ever again! The miserable stay started out with being denied entry at the airport immigration since they didn't accept the returnticket from Mexico as an outbound ticket. Curacao, no longer a part of The Netherland Antilles obviously has some very incompetent immigration officers, or we might just have met the wrong island-rat. This is the very first place where that has proven to be a problem. We couldn't really be shipped back to Grenada, so we were forced to buy tickets out of Curacao. But it doesn't even stop there, as they even denied us to buy a oneway ticket to Venezuela, apparently the oh so incompetent people here also get to decide wether or not we are allowed to enter Venezuela. Anyway, one spoon got away with buying a ticket to Panama, and the other spoon is stuck with a returnticket to Caracas... Awesome, and more than $200 out the window.
And yes, as you just read, the spoons has met a fork in the road. That's why one spoon is heading to Panama to meet that specific fork, and the other spoon is thinking kidnappings, murders and muggings in Venezuela sounds more tempting. The Venezuelan spoon is meeting two other oddly shaped spoons in Colombia to get some serious threeway spooning done. The Panama spoon is gonna spoon with a fork. Can you even spoon a fork? Or do you have to fork a fork? Hard to fork a spoon at least... Or is it? Basically the spoons are forking around for about a month and will spoon again somewhere around Nicaragua.
One thing is funny about Curacao tho, they speak papeti poopi. Sounds weird as hell, but we love it! So, what have we done here!? Nothing... Absolutely nothing... Lovely isn't it? But we do have a riddle for you this time: How do you know when a spoon has been drinking to much soda? Anyone? No? Well, the answer is when he has fallen asleep outside his door, key in hand, being unable to unlock the door and get into bed...
Since we've had such a terrible time in Curacao, our next project will be to travel through time, and we will be back before last week...
