One Happy Island – Aruba! Happy Halloween!

Well, it is that time of year when we travel to our favorite vacation spot – Aruba. Bon Bini – welcome from Aruba! It is a beautiful little island, sunny, warm weather, balmy breezes, sparkling, crystal water and white sandy beaches. What more can you ask for? There are also many wonderful restaurants to eat all kinds of tasty meals and plenty of fresh fish of the day!

Here are some photos to share of our first couple of days here. I won’t be posting every day but a few more times for your enjoyment. I hope you like my photos and that they put you in the mood for some island living.

We are always here on this sunny island for Halloween! I will snap more of the decorations when I see them and send along. There are many areas that are in construction making it difficult to photograph these signs of Halloween with many obstacles in the way. I will do my best though. I did snap one below of a zombie.

I brought my Canadian friend, author Mike Martin’s book to Aruba so I could take a selfie for him with it. I hope he sees this. I plan to send him a few of them of course if he doesn’t see it.

I promise to send along plenty more pics of this lovely island. It is so relaxing each day sitting under our palapa (umbrella) and reading or sleeping. We spend plenty of time in the water which is warm but refreshing. Unfortunately, I suffered from a terrible sunburn the first day and have had to wear a shirt the next day and probably for a couple more days. I used a 70 spray but found out too late that sprays are not effective with this blazing sun. Sigh! I visited the Aloe store in our complex and stocked up with a few things to try to heal my poor sore and red skin. I don’t usually burn like this. I think it may have something to do with a medication I am taking as per a friend here who is a nurse. She is a wealthy of information.

Well, I got to get to sleep now. I have to get up early here. No sleeping in or I would miss out on the lovely beach time.

Stay tune for more photos and food to make you envious that you are not here too. I wish you could be. It is memorable!

Thank you for stopping by to read this post and for your continued support. I promise to get back to work on my book when I return home. Watch for it in time for the holidays!

Blessings & Hugs! Stay Safe, Stay Well and God Bless!
