Our Posts about Venezuela
Today’s Friday Happy Hour is dedicated to the legions of UC fans halfway ’round the world in The Land Down Under. Yes, it’s surprising but true: we have readers in Australia!
We don’t know too many of our Aussie fans, but a couple of them are actually very close friends. One guy in particular, Mike Garcia, is an old buddy from St. Croix who fell prey to the charms of a sultry Sheila from Adelaide 10 years ago, got hitched, started a family, and has been there ever since.
I often feel sorry for Mike. Not because there’s anything wrong with Australia.
Most any day on any beach in the Caribbean is bound to be fun, but a day spent at Cepe Beach in Venezuela promises to be a whole lot more. This place just oozes idyllic with an undeveloped strip of pristine white sand, crystal-clear water and minimal signs of civilization.
We love our beaches secluded, and Cepe definitely fits the bill. In fact, the only way to get here is by hitching a boat ride from the town of Choroni, a good 30 minutes away. The only crowds are the fish in the sea and the lush vegetation in the hills to the south.
