I woke early enough to capture a sunrise heading into our last port today, Aruba.

All was quiet on the streets except for the noise from our approaching ship.

We enjoyed coffee on our balcony. It’s a big balcony but it could use some maintenance.

We decided to walk around the town and not do too much. We were here last year so it wasn’t important for us to spend a lot of time. There were a lot of vendors selling Aruba souvenirs.

Once you’ve seen one shop you’ve seen them all.
We looked for a cafe or bakery and all we could find was Starbucks. We had a strawberry smoothie and shared a pound cake.

We went by a Protestant Church but it was locked up.

Then strolled past an area with swings and outside seating. Someone asked to take our picture.

Afterward, we thought, he could have taken my phone and run.
We stopped in a art gallery where they use plants and other materials to color objects. The process looked very interesting. A small piece ran about $50.


There are very high end stores in Aruba and for the life of me I don’t understand why anyone would go here to shop in them. I guess you really have to like to shop.




Some of the interesting sites about town!


Before we returned to the ship, we sat in the terminal so Bruce could use the Wifi. It works really well in the Aruba Port Terminal and they supply ample seating.
All in all, Aruba is very clean but I like places that are a little more exotic. We’ve been here before and swimming in its gorgeous waters are probably the best.
Leaving port, another beautiful sunset!
