Hate to be a downer, but I am currently in Aruba at the Radisson. The fact I am posting online should say it all. A storm hit around 9pm last night that was intense, but kind of fun. Then another major one hit this morning all but wiping out the beach. There are six foot muddy waves, and it is very dark and cloudy. We are hoping it clears, but there is no chance of the ocean returning to its gorgeous clear blue calmness we expect in Aruba for the duration of our trip.

Time to hit the casinos pretty hard.
