We are in Aruba! Dave and I are going to enjoy this beautiful sunny island for 10 days starting December 12th, while it is pretty cold at home in DC. Aruba is an island with a steady temperature of 82-86 degrees of Fahrenheit (°F) this time of the year with sunny days and delightful breezes every day. Aruba is the southernmost island located just 15 miles from Venezuela surrounded by breathtaking beaches. I am not exaggerating, the beaches there are the best in the Caribbean, only Megan’s Bay in St. Thomas can compete with them, in my opinion. Part of the island is mostly desert where Arikock National park is situated. Here is one of the two most photographed fofoti trees on the Eagle Beach in Aruba.
