Shopping
This island totally exist on tourism, so SHOPPING abounds!! There are shops for everything. YUMBO
is giant complex right behind our hotel and it also has a ton of restaurants and clubs - a very hopping spot all day long. Today, Peter & Cris and I explored further and took a free bus to another part of the island, Puerto Rico
and the bus was provided by the Mogan Mall.
Shops were a bit more upscale here but it was interesting to see a more arid side of the island.

CARTAGENA, COLUMBIA - EASTER SUNDAY 4/20/25
To cap off our FUN week with the Miller's, Bosco suggested we go to one of his favorite restaurants in Aruba, Faro Blanco (or the white lighthouse) at the north end of island. The meal was delicious, lots of homemade pasta and it seemed every table was celebrating somebody's birthday. Not to be left out, when I stepped out to use the restroom, the Miller's and Bosco plotted to celebrate my upcoming Birthday. So upon my return to the table, I was surprised by a flaming torch in a piece of cake with singing wait staff! A nice surprise!
ARUBA - Let's go sailing again!
