So, I’ve been trying some things out with my iPhone 6, including a video app. Decided it would be instructive and fun to make a few little clips around Aruba. Here’s the first one, “Mangel Alto Morning.”
Save that view for January (if you’re in the northern hemisphere of planet earth). It will surely thaw your bones then. This is a great place to snorkel and just enjoy the Caribbean. Check out other posts on my blog for more Aruba stuff.
Recently, Curtis from One Happy Podcast contacted me for an interview. His podcast centers on all things Aruba, so I was thrilled for the opportunity to share my experiences of the island. Here’s the link to the interview:

Curtis asked some great questions and has the patience to let me ramble on about writing, Aruba, and various other things. His podcast is a great way to get first-hand info about the island, so check in frequently.
Bon dia.
I was out gathering sound EFX and stock footage recently and was atop the water tank hill in Savaneta, Aruba. Here’s just a quick look from San Nicolaas to the south, panning past Savaneta toward Pos Chikito.
Beautiful view from up there. Windy, too. So, if you visit that spot, be careful. Bon dia.
Cafe 080 serves up Dutch-style favorites in a pub atmosphere. This place is located just around the corner from the traffic light in Noord, Aruba, so it’s easy to find and only a couple minutes drive from the high-rise hotel area.
Outdoor seating at Cafe 080, Noord, Aruba, DWI.
As you can see from the photos above, there is seating outside. There’s also a bar inside with plenty of soccer (football) memorabilia on display.

This place has the best french fries on the island. I stop in to satisfy that craving from time to time as well as to enjoy the various other Dutch food treats that you’ll find on the menu. Prices are very reasonable. So venture out from that resort and try the Cafe 080. If there’s a soccer match on, you’ll be sure to enjoy the vibe here, too.
