Some final notes on Venezuela

A travel blog entry by watola

First I intended to go the the aloe plantation on the east side of Willemstad - ...

He then offered to show me some other places. Some of them I had already been to so he said that Boca Tabla was close by. A woman here at Landhuis Daniel had recommended it. I thought it was a swimming beach but it is more of a scenic ...
