Upon arriving in Aruba for my first ever visit, I'd very much like to take an underwater tour of the Caribbean and see sunken ships and maybe pirate's treasure!! Any spots or tour company recommendations would be greatly appreciated!!

Thank you! I will definitely check those out, the jolly pirates tour looks like a lot of fun, any horror stories aboard their ships??

Snorkeling and swinging off a boat sounds exciting!

Somehow, somewhere, someone will have a horror story about everything. Some people are only happy when they can complain, even when it isn't warranted.

chadd you could not have put that more eloquently!!
it never amazes me to hear the complaints of what i consider ridiculous things.

yesterday we had an hour wait on our plane in miami before take off. i moaned and groaned about it.
they had to change a tire.

i was stupid to moan and whine about it.

as you say "some people are only happy when they have something to complain about"

Trust me, you don't want to be on a plane with a flat tire. I did that once and I'd like to avoid doing it ever again.
