Day 3: Aruba

We finally got of the boat today after 2-1/2 days of At Sea fun.  But it was nice to be on solid ground again today, especially in ARUBA!!  Did I mention how much I love this place?  It is so gorgeous not to mention warm, when we left this morning at 7am it was already 80* and trust me it got hotter! 

Okay so lets see, what did I do today??

Jaime, Zak, Alex, Kelly, Brandi & I all went on an excursion today – here’s a picture of our Party Bus!

Along the way we passed a group of cactuses with tons of iguanas climbing all over them.

So you want to know where we went on our excursion?  Well we went here, to the California Light House.  It’s a beautiful lighthouse that was built in the early 1900s!

No this isn’t just another picture of the lighthouse…if you look closely you can see a black dot…that’s Brandi!

After the lighthouse we were taken to a beautiful beach.  We’d been to this beach twice before, but it was still beautiful! 

Poor Alex, she fell for Zak’s “I’ll go under with you on the count of 3”….yeah she went down…him…not so much!

We only had a half day in Aruba today, the ship left at 1pm, so we spent the afternoon playing in the pool and sunbathing.  I (yes, miss athletic) participated in Water Volleyball.  Yes it was quite comical…amazingly I was one of the better players!  Both sides were in deep water so we had to tread the whole time to stay up. 

See me with the ball??!
