During a book signing event at the Hyatt Hotel and Resort in Aruba, I spotted these cats taking in the shade beneath the flowers on the veranda.
They had several guests wrapped around their little paws. Food and water was left for them, which they indulged in liberally before stretching out for a nap. They have it pretty good for a couple of strays. I hope they find a decent home and stay out of trouble.
Bon dia from Aruba.
With all the rain we’ve been having in Aruba, the local goats (wild and otherwise) are looking healthy. This one wandered into my back yard for a snack.
Wasn’t alone either. Came with about a dozen others. Saves me the trouble of cutting the weeds. At any rate, the goats and sheep and other creatures have been feasting on all the vegetation that springs up after the rains. Aruba is more green than ever, which makes for a striking contrast to the desert-dry island I first visited fifteen years ago.
Be careful driving near the traffic circle at Pos Chikito. There’s a huge herd of goats that crosses the main highway there, sometimes two or three times a day. Once the first one goes, the others follow in crazy pack.
Bon dia from Aruba.
I love cats and I love to fly but I wouldn’t expect my cat to go flying. Not in a small plane anyway. Well, check out this video:
That’s Iris the Bengal Cat on the dashboard while this fellow lands his Cessna 172. Beautiful landing and Iris provided her compliments to the pilot.
Gotta love those cats but I think the better part of safety would be to strap them in. Just saying.
