Relax, unless your all about the beach Aruba is boring. It's flat, with a lighthouse, casino and the Aloe Vera factory. The beach is beautifulif that's your thing. Good is you missed St Lucia or St Maarten .... now that would be sad..

Sometimes that happens. It is disappointing but I’m sure there is a valid reason.
