That is an amazing amount of progress for Aruba since October when we saw it. We didn't think it would be done for years at that time.

Nancy, congratulations on another trip!! I, unfortunately, have to wait another 8 months for mine. Any update you could provide on the water park after your trip would be great. We are travelling down with a large group in October and are hoping the park is open by then.

I'm sure that the locals will get a sizable discount as they do at De Palm Island and many restaurants on the island. When Charlie & I went with a local and her 2 children to De Palm island last year we paid over $60. plus tax each (this was for 1/2 day before they changed it that you have to pay for full day) and Michelle paid with the 2 kids $54.00.

Just looked at their website http://www.arubamorgansisland.com/ It is up, but no info. My cats loved the animation.

How can it possibly take 3 years to build a water park? That's worse than the Hawaiian's are with bridges.
