Add Barefoot to your restaurant list. Had dinner there tonight and it was fantastic. Great atmosphere right on the beach, professional service, and terrific food.

Some one told me to get Audio books for Aruba-- so I am not having my face buried in a book.

Whats your thoughts on that?

i live and breathe audiobooks.
i got hooked on them about 10 yrs ago and started listening to audiobooks on my walkman cassette player...graduated to a walkman cd player and now on my ipod and iphone.

the best thing about listening instead of reading is that as you said, you are not having your face buried in the book. as you sit/lounge you are listening.

i love sitting on the beach or at the pool and "not miss any of the action with my face in a book"

many many libraries have audiobooks to loan.

also too audible.com and itunes have a great selection.

practice before you go to aruba though.
for as many folks that love listening.........many folks hate it.

perfect for long rides in the car.

What are we reading this summer?
