Aruba!

We are back from our honeymoon. We had an awesome time. We stayed at the Renissance Marina hotel. It was not right on the water, but we had a boat that picked us up in our lobby and took us to our own private island. The island was amazing.There was the family side and the adult side. There were iguannas everywhere and wild pink flamingos that we fed. It was so exotic and peaceful. Laying in the sun or in Daniels case under the palm trees. We stayed all inclusive, which saved us because everything was pretty pricey. So we ate and drank for free and Daniel took advantage of that with as many Pina Coladas he drank. The weather was great! Hot and Sunny everyday. Some of the major things we did included my dream of a couples massage on the beech. There was a little hut on the private island that you could get massages on. It was the best massage ever! No cd of calming sounds it was all natural sounds of the waves and birds. We did a party bus ride called the KooKoo Kanuku. It was a party bus that picked you up at your hotel and there were two buses of about 30 people each. The first stop was a champagne toast at the lighthouse at sunset, then we stopped a 4 local bars. The first we got a free shot. Then we went to dinner at Bruce Lee's old house. It was neat. Then we had 3 stops at local bars in Aruba where we got one free drink or our waterbottle filled up with whatever we chose. It was really cool. Daniel and I both ended up dancing on bar. Our guide Mamma was so funny. She liked to have a good time and made sure we all did to. Daniel had quite a bit to drink that day. He was feeling real good by the end of the night. We also did a snorkle boat ride. Thanks to Heidi! She got us hooked up on the boat which stopped at two stops. The first was a reef where we seen lots of marine life. The other stop was a sunken ship. It was eerie but neat to see. That was alot of fun. We went to the infamous Senior Frogs, which used to be Carlos and Charleys. It was a cool place. We did not see much night life while we were there. It was like everyone just disapeared at night. But that was ok with us because after all the stuff we did during the day we were wore out at night. The trip was great, but when it came time to come home it sucked. The Aruba airport was packed because of all the delayed flights to New York area. We were there forever and had to go through six different sercuritys. The day we came home felt like it lasted forever. Then we land back home and everything was snow covered. It was crazy laying by the pool in the moring and being in snow that night. We were ready to come home, but not ready to leave the nice weather. Well thats our trip in a nutshell. Now its back home and back to reality.
