Quizfrage

What are the names of Curacao's neighboring islands?

Small tip: ABC

Antwort

The main neighboring islands are Aruba and Bonaire.

Curacao forms the C of the ABC islands.

Geographically, the islands belong to the Leeward Islands. Geologically, they belong to South America, as they lie on the South American continental shelf. Curacao and Venezuela are only 60 kilometers apart.

Strictly speaking, there is also Klein Curacao and Klein Bonaire. These two secondary islands of the main island of the same name are uninhabited.

  • Quiz Question

    What is Bolo di Manteka?

    Answer

    The translation of the term once again reveals Papiamentu as a mixed language:
    bolo=cake from Portuguese and manteca=butter from Spanish.
    In Papiamentu, the “de” becomes “di” and the “c” is replaced by a “k”.

    Bolo di manteca is a butter cake – the basic recipe is a pound cake made with wheat flour.
    Bolos are moist and yummy and keep for several days in the fridge. They are available in all supermarkets in many different varieties – we have eaten them plain, in 3 colors, as marble cake and also with chocolate chips.

    You can’t go wrong with that choice for your children.
    A clear recommendation for sweet tooths!
