Takeoff!

Here’s another video of a departing flight from Queen Breatrix Airport, Aruba, DWI.

I can’t get enough of that view.

Bon dia.

Sunset Over Paradera

Many people who visit Aruba comment on the beautiful sunsets. There have been some truly spectacular ones the last couple of weeks. Here’s one my wife snapped a few evenings ago.

parasunsetWe were just driving along and looked over and there it was, the brilliant hues flashing across the sky. Nice.

Bon dia.

Colorado Point Panorama

Here is an assembly of photos to create a 360 degree panorama looking off Colorado Point at the south end of the island of Aruba, DWI. It doesn’t fit here to try this link:

The point can be bleak, but that’s the striking beauty of it. The colors of the rocks vary, as does the sea. It’s worth a stop at this point for a photo op if you find yourself on the island.

Bon dia.

Some Aruba Sights, video

It’s been a long time since I put together a little video footage of Aruba. So here’s one. It starts on the south end of the island, looking off Colorado point. Then takes a look at Baby Beach, the former Esso Colony and refinery. You’ll see Roger’s Beach, too, and Lourdes Grotto. Then it skips up to the middle of the island at Arikok National Park. From there see a small church in Piedra Plat then Eagle Beach, Arashi Beach, and finally California Lighthouse. Here it is.

Bon dia from Aruba.
