Señor Frogs, Aruba

Señor Frogs is a fun place to have a snack and a drink. They recently relocated from the seaport area to the boulevard along the highrise hotel strip. They’re located just across the street from the Radisson now. It’s easy to find, just look for the frog.

Catchy advertising there. You’ll also find some unique seating as shown below.

This place fills up quickly. And now that they’re close to the hotels you can have a few and not worry about driving back to the hotel. Just be careful walking.

Enjoy your party in a responsible way. Bon dia from Aruba.

Boardwalk, Oranjestaad Harbor

Boardwalk is the name of a very nice motor yacht that pulled into Oranjestaad Harbor here in Aruba the other day. She sports her own helicopter, which would come in mighty handy now and then. Take a look.

High style, no? You bet. Caused traffic jams on the road through town as everyone gawked. Wouldn’t mind a ride aboard her so long as I don’t have to pay the fuel.

Velazquez Sky

Much of the year, in most of Spain, you’ll find a blue sky like no other.

You see it there above the mountains as I’m rolling down this stretch of road on the way to Ronda. The air is dry, the sun warm, the terra firma solid under foot. Sure, you’ll have overcast rainy days, but many more are just like the one above.

There is that blue sky again, this time at dusk over Trujillo. Note the castle looming over the plaza mayor. Taking photos in Spain is easy given that warm light. You average consumer digital camera captures scenes with no worries using the automatic settings.

Things Get Fuzzy…

…when you’re in Aruba. You go for a walk on the beach. You have a few drinks. You catch some sun. The next thing you know, you’re relaxed, no worries, not a care in the world aside of where to have supper.

Anyway, this lady had the right idea. Reading a book, letting the world go by, and enjoying a Sunday morning in high Caribbean Style. If the photo above is a little fuzzy, you need a vacation. Right NOW!
