Tranquilo in Aruba

Regular visitors and first-timers alike may find parts of Aruba to be more like Miami than a Caribbean island. And yet, there are still many quiet places to be enjoyed. A suggestion: go for a sail aboard Tranquilo and you’ll find yourself in a scene like this.

Tranquilo stops at Mangel Alto.

There are fringe reefs with little huts built along Aruba’s coast. These are only accessible via boat. There are also numerous places on shore where you can sit, relax, enjoy the view, and decompress. I’ll be making a video of several soon, so stay tuned here at The Bent Page. Bon dia.

An Ideal Location?

Here in Aruba, I’ve been thinking about building myself a little writer’s shack to go with my regular shack. This would be a tiny structure, about 8′ X 12′ or so, a place to focus on the writing and avoid the distractions of the refrigerator and such. Then today, I got to thinking a little more about this and was wondering if it might be better to build the thing on a trailer as I’ve seen some of these tiny houses lately. Then I could roll it around, parking it for the day at a location such as this:

Ideal location for a writer’s shack in Aruba?

Heck of a view there from Savaneta, Aruba, DWI or what? So, I could park for the day, get some work done, and then tote the tiny shack back to the bigger shack for the night. Anyway, like many things, it seems like a good idea. You never know.
