DAY 13- ARUBA

ARUBA! our last country :(

This was the only stop where we didn't do an excursion. The country of Aruba is only 19 miles around! It is owned by the dutch so it is full of European and American people. English is the main language and the US dollar is the main currency. 

Aruba is an extremely small island full of jewelry shops, casinos, boats, beaches, and alcohol. I was extremely tired going into this last stop. Everyday there were multiple production shows on the ship that were new every other day, music, food, activities, pools, contests, etc etc etc. By this time, I was too tired to do anything. 

All we did was walk around, hit the beach, go back and souvenir shop in the 5-6 hours that we were there.

The most amazing thing about this country other than its beaches was the lizards! There are the normal 6 inch lizards in other countries and then there are the Aruba lizards! these things were massive and colorful. There were thousands of them everywhere and were easily a foot long. 

I also left the camera on the ship because if there was a place for a nice camera to get stolen... this would probably be it.

Aruba 

full of upscale shops and jewelry stores. The entire time on the cruise there would be pamphlets on free and discounted jewelry. Discounted as in it will only cost you $10,000.99!!! COOL DAMN STORY BRO. Oh, and free as in FAKE

you cacti.

Frankie J "got a body built just like a coke bottle." Actually towards the end of the trip, my body was more like a fat plastic coke bottle melted in the sun.

Is Alyssa:
a) Trying to make the best Baywatch impersonation?
b) running around because it is ARUBA?
c) collecting so much pamphlets that blew away from her, forcing her to chase after all of them?
