Aruba Trip - June 3rd

Yesterday was a nice weather day. Headed down towards baby beach yesterday and made some stops along the way. Had not been to baby beach in a few years. Has changed quite a bit. There is a restaurant now where you can have lunch. It is called "Big Mama's Grill". The theme of the place is based on the Flintstones. Pretty cool. They appear to be making the area into a park. Part of me liked the old baby beach, but then again, the amenities are nice too.

Also stopped at Spanish Lagoon area and saw military running exercise drills. They were jumping off a bridge fully clothed and then had to go through a series of obstacles that were hanging under the bridge.

Next went to Mangel Halto. This area has been cleaned up beautifully. There are mangroves here.

As we got over towards baby beach towards the prison area, we saw lots of goats...so cute. Then we saw a procession of donkeys coming down the side of the road. They were funny. Stopped by our car to see if we had any food offerings. They then stopped at the next car...I think they got a treat.

Back to the beach at resort....more beach...ocean and beer and laughs with friends!

Dinner last night was at Amadeus.  Not really sure the meal was the "wow" factor that I remembered in the past years. 

Here are a few pictures I snapped on my iPad yesterday;
