Casinos

So I've been planning this trip since January. Just yesterday my DH said to me: "There are casinos in Aruba?! Why didn't you tell me?!".

You know I DID tell him, lol!

My son, my son-in-law, and I all won last night at the Hyatt casino, so that is now officially my "best Casino"-at least until I lose there tonight . It was actually a fun crowd in there at the card tables, but very little activity in the poker room and at the craps table.

When we first went to Aruba we checked out a casino each evening.

If you are used to casinos like vegas or atlantic city- the ones in Aruba are quite small in comparrisson.

There was one- (and of course I do not remember it) the slot machines felt like they were on top of each other and there were chairs-- and when this lady kept trying to pass behind me I had to get up and move my chair in so she can get by,

It was very crowded there that night. I will not be back to that one
