This 1960s color film is about the ABC islands in the Leeward Antilles: Aruba, Bonaire, and Curacao. It was produced by John Ferno and Cinesphere, and narrated by actor Frank Thornton. Up-close views are shown of different textures, shapes, architectures, and colors on walls, houses, buildings, ships, and people on Curacao (:07-1:49). A flag is raised by a wind sock, the weather station spins, and the wind direction and speed is shown (1:50-1:58). A map shows the islands’ location (1:59-2:16). A teenager adjusts his round bicycle radio and rides down narrow stone alleys flanked by colorful buildings. The camera focuses on the Netherlands flags on his front tires (2:17-3:30). People walk across the Queen Emma Bridge: soldiers in uniform, a mother and daughter, women carrying baskets on their heads, women wearing colorful head scarves, and nurses (3:31-4:00). A statue of Louis Brion is shown (4:02). The whistle blows and people scurry to get off the pontoon swinging bridge before it moves to allow the Irving Glen tanker, a cruise liner, and other boats through before returning into position. Various shots of people watching the boats are interspersed (4:03-6:04). A statue of Peter “Peg-Leg Pete” Stuyvesant leads to a group of school children (6:05-7:03). Waves crash against the rocks and a view from within a covered cove looks out (7:07-7:15). A large sailboat and a herd of goats is shown (7:16-7:40). Men outside a thatched adobe home play stringed instruments (7:41-7:52). In Aruba, a yellow windmill arrow is shown up-close as it spins (7:54-8:00). A man walks past divi-divi windblown trees and boards a bus with refinery workers wearing hard hats. At the refinery, a worker paints a metal pipe and others make repairs (8:01-9:18). A man makes music by hitting an object within a metal pan of water (9:19-9:28). Windmills pump water, and a factory turns salt water into fresh (9:29-9:53). Men cut tall cacti with machetes and lean each cactus against wire to make a fence (9:54-10:22). Men carve objects, including a tiny flamingo (10:23-10:45). On Flamingo Island, flamingos walk past and settle in their nests on the sand. The eggs are seen. A large group of flamingo chicks run past on the salt flats (10:46-11:38). Men use pick axes and shovels on the salt mounds of Bonaire (11:39-12:09). Shown is an island obelisk (12:10-12:17). A rowboat is carried between towering mounds of conch shells (12:18-12:31). Divers in bathing suits, flippers, and masks bring up conch shells (12:32-12:57). Colorful fish are in an aquarium at the Institute of Marine Biology (12:58-13:13). A market made up of schooners includes fresh fish and a variety of produce (13:14-13:45). Students walk at Stuyvesant College (13:46-14:00). A group of sailors in white shorts, white t-shirts, white knee-socks and sailor hats walk among a variety of people in the shopping district (14:01-14:36). A woman sings to an impromptu band using a hand drum, metal tools, and an animal horn in celebration of harvest (14:37-16:00). An organette is wound to make music (16:01-16:50).

To bad there isn't more footage from Aruba, one lady really looks like my great grandma. She was a fishermans wife in the port of Aruba, selling my great grandpa's fishes.
