Aruba: Dushi Terra: Photos 63 to 84

We arrived to fine weather. From above we could see the turquiose waters lapping the white sand shoreline and palm trees swaying in the breeze. The passengers chattered excitedly and the air hostess welcomed us to Aruba. After reporting a damaged bag to JetBlue customer service, we exited to find Tanta Henna waiting for us. We hugged. And then, a little head appeared thru the back window of her car. Panic was jumping up and down with excitement wagging his little stumpy tail. We hugged again and then headed home. Oom (uncle) Jean, Tashi (Shanna's 10-year old cousin) and Tanta Henna's delicious fried fish were waiting for us. Then Opa came. It's always a pleasure seeing Opa. The 92-going-on-93 spritely 'youngster', who still drives himself to bingo a few times a week, always brings good humour to every gathering. Between mouthfuls of fried fish and johnny cakes, we caught up on old times til late in the evening.

We had been to Aruba before (many times) but somehow this time felt extra special. We borrowed Tanta Henna's car and drove into town. Oranjestad, the capital, is some kind of wonderful. The main throughfare thru the city is the L.G. Smith
