The night at the airport was hot and I had to risk starting the car and turning the air condition on and maybe calling the security. The airport of Maracaibo was not with such a heavy security as the airport in Caracas and I was lucky and had a cool night in my car. It ...
2015-10-03 Coro – Maracaibo
The rain saved my day yesterday. Overall I had expected more from the Paraguana peninsula, probably because of the distance to the islands of Aruba, Bonaire and Curacao, which I had in my mind with beautiful beaches and water. My mind had assumed that just being located opposite these islands that I would encounter similar ...
2015-10-02 Coro – Cabo San Roman – Coro
I went straight from the hospital parking to the colonial center which was a gated area and prohibited for cars. The area enclosed was more or less three street blocks plus the church and the square. The area had definitely historical character but did not really convince me to be a UNESCO world heritage site. [videos ...
2015-10-01 Tucacas – Coro
I had breakfast at my favorite bakery for the last time and said good bye to my favorite parking and drove towards the city of Coro. The motorway was a good distance from the sea and within a semi desert area, very similar to the interior of my Brazilian home state Rio Grande do Norte. ...

The local hospital was a good place for the night and the Park a good place for the morning. I entered second just behind the local bus who had the staff on board to drop off at the various beaches. The major parts of the Park were the mangroves which were only accessible via boat ...
2015-09-29 Maiquetia – Tucacas
Finally on my third day the security of the long term parking came to my car this morning and wanted to control the car. Last night the parking suffered a black out, it was completely dark and I had left the windows a bit open to have fresh air. He kindly asked me to leave ...

This morning was the same drive as yesterday only today I expected of course more traffic and delays as it was the first working day of the week. Today I wanted to see the Zoo and the Botanical garden. I arrived at the final station of the line number 2 and walked to the entrance ...
2015-09-27 Caracas
I left the car for 250 Bolivares for 24 hours at the long term parking and used public transport to go to Caracas and move around. First I had to take the bus from the airport to Caracas and one company offered this service almost every half an hour. After a 30 minute drive we ...
2015-09-26 Rio Chico – Maiquetia
Today everything was 30. Today I wanted to get to the airport of Caracas, which is actually located in the city of Maiquetia as quick as possible to have internet access. I had chosen though the old and curvy coast road. Yesterday had already been a beautiful drive but today would even be better. The first ...
2015-09-26 Tucacas, Venezuela / 30 years my Queen / 30 years my Wife / 30 years my Friend

2015-09-25 Mochima – Rio Chico
The night was hot and short. In the morning I had another walk through the village that was starting to prepare itself for tourists and actually the first boat left with a family for a tour. Mochima is at the end of an extensive but narrow bay with just a small entrance to the sea ...
