Got Very Sick on My First Aruba Trip
After all those months of planning & anticipating I spent 5 out of 7 days in bed. Went to the emergency room upon our arrival home & spent 2 days in the hospital. Pneumonia, bronchitis, dehydration and ear infections. I spent alot of time crying and feeling sorry for myself.
We did love our choice of staying at the Tam. We were in 1900 bldg. Very close to the Bunker Bar and a beautiful stretch of beach. Glad we had another couple with us so my husband wasn't on his own. They rented Harleys and took a tour of the island. I did manage to do the Kukoo bus before I got sick. We had a blast. My husband rented a jeep and went to the Natural Pool, I was sick in bed that day. He came back all messed up. He was on a rock and a wave hit him & he fell. Ripped the skin off his leg, arm & foot! We were quite a pair that evening.
We all decided Aruba was the most beautiful place any of us had ever been. We are hooked and hope to return. My husband said next Feb. but I can't wait that long..I missed so much. I think I might be able to talk him into Sept!
