Default This will be the trip of our lifes!

When we left Aruba last time i felt so sad very sad. At that time i didn't know if we would return or not. We got home dec 30 and the sadness i felt were not a nice feeling. You know how much i love Aruba.

Sometime in the middle of Jan it turned. We looked over our economy and found out that it were posssible for us to go to Aruba this year to. Not only that, we are celebrating both Christmas and New Years eve in Aruba. This trip will be with flight+vacation a total of 18 wonderful days.

This years trip will start and end in a different way then the last four trips we have made. We will fligh with United Airlines +American Airlines instead of KLM. The flight will be longer and we will have to change flights two times instead of one. It's ok, we will save a lot of money. We booked and payed for the flight in mid feb. Beacuse we did that we got cheeper tickets. We saved about 4000$. I know it will be a very very long flightday with the flighthours and the waiting in between flights but with that money saved we don't mind.

WE ARE GOING BACK T ARUBAAAAAAA!!!
Arrivaldate is dec 16 and we are not going home until jan 2.

Now i'm HAPPY so HAPPY!

Hugs to you all

Tina from Sweden

I'm so happy for you, Tina! We all know and understand PAD (post-Aruba depression).

It is every Monday from 5:00 to 6:00 plus. It is also their "Happy hour". The group usually sits beside the bar at tables and chairs.
