Ok, here we go again... 8)

the Summit of the Americas was held in Cartagena, Colombia, a short distance from Curacao. Although the US President felt safe to spend the night in Colombia, his plane was parked at Curacao for two nights. And as you all know, the US President never travels alone...

Arrival of the VC-25A and accompanying C-32A was Friday shortly after sunset, departure in glorious weather on Sunday. One of the C-32s had already arrived on Friday afternoon.

It was hard to choose which of Hato's numerous spots to go to witness their departure, just hoped I made the right choice....
