We plan to continue our geo caching today. First stop was to fix our picture in Casibari Rock Formation for the virtual geo cashing. The last time the GPS was not really visible. So this afternoon was a retake. We're supposed to go to Ayo Rock Formation but we couldn't find the sign that point to the direction to Ayo Rock Formation. It was there on the day we went to the Hooiberg. We went to Natural Bridge instead. This is our second ...

... And we did not have an internet access at the Divi Dutch Village. So we were geo caching solely with our GPS without any added clues. On top of the rock where we were looking for our cache we saw a lot of bullet casings. We wondered why there was so many in the area. The view of the ocean on top of the rock was really beautiful. We proceeded to Quadiriki Cave. The sign towards the cave says Quadiriki but a lot of people and websites ...

... then went out for our snorkeling excursion booked through the ship. The excursion was on the Palm Pleasure catamaran - beautiful boat. We had a relaxing cruise (ironically enough - back out to the Palm Beach area) for our 2 snorkeling spots. The first one was relatively easy water. Not a ton of fish, but enough to keep us looking and some nice coral as well. The second ...

There is a legend that says if you build a little statue made out of rocks one of top of the other one, make a wish, and if the wind blows it down, your wish will come true. Off I went building my dream as well as Mi. I wonder if it is still standing at the moment!

Next stop was the Aruba's Aloe Factory. No photos were allowed inside. As we followed the guide inside the building, she explained to us how the plant was ...

... of the evening, the champagne waterfall. While we waited, we played a game of Scrabble in the games room and Poolie kicked my butt. He got the word "Zest" on a triple word score and double letter score for the "Z"! Aww!

The Champagne Waterfall...so many glasses, all piled so high! Someone dropped their camera down on us from an upper level and it could have really hurt if it hit us - thankfully, it didn't! The camera was totally broken ...

... enough here as I have mentioned. You'll have to check back when I am back in Montreal and am able to actually put pictures up. We had so much fun visiting things that you can only see by going "off roading" such as the Alta Vista Chapel, which is a church that is 257 years old. It is so small inside that they actually have services outside on the benches. *This will be one of the pictures you can see later* We also saw many natural bridges that were created by the waves ...

... a carribean topaz necklace. pretty subtle, very regional.. something you can't find elsewhere but in the carribean i guess (or that's what the dastard sales person said ;)) dreading the long flight home but looking very forward to getting back to work with renewed clarity.. a renewed sense of belonging to the ocean that i love. must do: sail. sail. sail. must return: yes. and island hop next time.

He Said: This was a very exciting time for me. I had never been out of the Country or Married so I had a lot of stuff going on with me.lol Aruba was beautiful though, we had a great flight there and we got to the resort without any problems.
