Andrea, as always, you come up with something "Excellent," such as what you wrote re the garbage truck. You are right, "Just smile, wave, wish them well, and move on.""

nikko where did your mom and aunt decide to stay?
you were aiming at booking them into divi or tamarijn right?
or holiday inn?

i hope they will relay some thoughts to you and you can throw together an mom and aunt aruba trip report.

again, i think it is excellent that you pulled it all together and they are off!!

THEY DID A FULLLLLL SEARCH. neither my mom or aunt could understand.....she had the card!!!! lol

predictions for you mom and aunt.............
(i am assuming they are single ladies, but maybe i am wrong)
they will hook up with some wealthy handsome gentleman, will call you and say "sayonnara".........we are staying and marrying these wealthy handsome men from wonderful aruba.

or
they will have a blast, come home exhilirated and are so grateful they send you and your hubby to aruba as a gift.
