Aruba

Recorded February 21, 2008.

Aruba is a 21 mile-long island of the Lesser Antilles in the southern Caribbean Sea, 17 miles north of the Paraguaná Peninsula, Venezuela. Together with Bonaire and Curaçao it forms a group referred to as the ABC islands of the Leeward Antilles, the southern island chain of the Lesser Antilles. Aruba has a population around 105,000 and a land area of 75 square miles. Oranjestad, with a population of 32,748 is the capital and most important city of Aruba located on the southern coast near the western end of the island.

This video begins as we sail into the harbour on the Crown Princess. After disembarking the ship I take a submarine cruise and visit the hotel area at Palm Beach. I visit the northern most point on the island at the California Lighthouse. I get a nice view of the island from the rock formation Casibari. I also witness the pounding surf on the east coast of the island. The video concludes as I walk around Oranjestad, the capital and largest city on the island.

You should be a travel agent because you capture the islands better than most professionals. Great videos, I am day dreaming and loving them.
