The Hyatt in Aruba features a very nice swimming pool complex. That may be an understatement. Check out the view from above:

On a day like this one, being in the pool is one of the great pleasures of vacation life. There is a juice bar and a regular bar for refreshments and snacks, both only a few steps away. Hyatt does it well in Aruba.
Here’s another photo from one of my favorite spots in Aruba, DWI. It’s on the dock at Zeerover, a little fisherman’s wharf. You can have a snack, a beverage, and take in the view. Have a look:

As we say, on this side of the bridge, it’s still the Caribbean. Enjoy respectfully.
While Hurricane Sandy passed by, I decided it was a good time to do some organization of my files. While working through various drawers, cabinets, and boxes, I discovered a few trinkets. One of them was this casino chip from the Hyatt in Aruba.
$1 chip from the Hyatt in Aruba.
This chip has to be about 10 years old. I haven’t gambled in a casino for that many years. Not sure why I saved it, probably as a reminder that casinos aren’t built by the winners. Hey, good luck!
A couple of airplanes were intentionally sunk in Aruba to make scuba diving sites. My friends Kent, Stuart, and Kat are avid snorkelers and divers as you know from reading The Bent Page. They were courteous enough to provide some footage so all of us who don’t breathe well under water could have a look. Check it out:
In all my years of reef building, I never sank any airplanes. Still, they make an interesting dive site, something completely different from the usual assortment of shipwrecks and such. More to come, so stay tuned.
