Aruba day

The ship stopped in Aruba today.  We got up early so we could get something to eat before going on a 8 AM trip.  First a bus took us to a boat which took us out in a bay to get on a semi-sub.  We went down into the lower level of the boat to sit by a window – we saw many fish and a ship wreck.  We were down there longer than I would have liked, was getting to feel a little ill. 

From there we went by bus to the “California” light house which is a high point on the 19 mile island.  Then it was to a natural bridge area and on to a giant rock area.  It turned out to be a 5 hour trip.  Good to get back to the air conditioning on the ship.  We got some sun and ocean spray.

Don wanted a Sunday for dessert at dinner, he got what they call a volcano (and not on the menu).  It was half banana slices stood up in ice cream all covered in whipped cream with sprinkles on top.  He ate it all!

In the evening we went to a magic show, it was OK – not great.
