Dave and I have wanted to go to this island for a long time. Way before the Natalie Holloway and other disappearances. It was as beautiful as promised. The white beaches covered with powdery sand were very nice. We rode the city bus (surprisingly nice and clean) to the high rise hotel district and enjoyed Palm Beach. We felt a little more at home because there was a building that looked similar to the Logan or Manti temple. We then walked down the road to Eagle beach and enjoyed more time on the beach there. This island was FULL of geckos or a small lizard that looks like one. They were all over on our walk on the way to the other beach. When we saw the first ones we took a bunch of pictures but soon realized that they were not a rare critter in these parts.
We did some shopping and got the kids some souvenirs and enjoyed some Italian gelato. I know….we weren’t in Italy, but I guess it saved us a trip to Italy for a little while. We decided that Aruba is a place that is definitely worth the trip to see.
