New Here

I'm new to the forums...wanted to introduce myself and say hello. My hubby and I just got back from our first trip to Aruba (we went with a couple friends too) and I'm already looking forward to planning out next trip

Thank you...we rode jet skis at our resort on Eagle Beach, drove ATV's to the Natural Bridge and Natural Pool (absolutely gorgeous buuuuut you should see the crazy bruises I got from that darn compartment thingy on the back, lol) and we went bottom sea fishing...fun! It was my first time fishing, well really fishing (I went out once to a fishless pond near home, seemed fishless anyway haha) and I caught the biggest fish on the boat...a trigger fish ((oh yeah)). It was our first anniversary and we went to dinner at The Flying Fishbone, mmm soo good!

22 days until your first visit...I remember that! LOL

Wow, sounds like you guys had a lot of fun! I will have to remember that, Flying Fishbone. Was the natural pool cool to see and swim in? What is "bottom" sea fishing?

We did indeed

The Natural Pool was awesome, definitely bring some water shoes though. Well, I wish I had anyway...the rocks were a little hard to walk on, some were slippery too. That said, water shoes or not I'd do it again! LOL

I'm not sure if that's just the boat name or what but we went out and caught trigger fish (that's what I caught anyway and it was BIG, the biggest fish caught on our boat that day...oh yeah, lol), grouper, grunt (never heard of that) and a few others. It was about half a day and they served drinks and lunch so it was cool.
