Quizfrage

What happens when you are near the Queen Emma Bridge and it starts ringing loudly?

Antwort

Then you’ll have to hurry if you want to get to the other bank!

The ringing announces the closing of the bridge gates. They will be moved aside in the next few minutes because a ship wants to cross the strait.
Too late? No problem – just take one of the ferry boats shuttling back and forth to the other shore.

  • 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!

    What are the names of Curacao's neighboring islands?

    Small tip: ABC

    Answer

    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.
