Hi all...here in Aruba(cindyo version)

[rob o]

I just ate at Passions with friends in April ....... Sorry you didn't like it but, to each their own.

I think that beef might be a safer choice at Passions. Fish is tough to gauge and cooking it just a minute more than you should can ruin it. It isn't the perfect kitchen set-up for a chef.

Like I had said in my post...the staff was great....no complaints about them for certain.

Met Leslie and Scott of Scot's of Scott's beats 2 days ago. Lovely friendly people. Do stop by for lunch or breakfast. Its great cheap and quick. Hey they also sell those Aruba license plates customized. We ordered 3.
Also while there met Terrtjoz and husband Jim. Both fun people. Will post pictures when I get a chance to download them.
Ate at LGSmith steakhouse last night. Fabulous steaks. Very happy with the 6 oz. Steak for me. Girls had goat cheese ravioli and calamari and onion soup. All happy.
Tonight young to CILO and tomorrow Chalet Suisse.
Weather perfect and no mosquitoes. Windy so those little bast**s cant land I guess.

Over fifteen years we've probably spent 100 days on the private island....never saw mosquitoes like this morning. We moved to the end of the jetty where it was breezy and, bingo, no more problem.

Great meal at Pinchos. I had seafood skewer...fabulous. Rob had grouper and loved it.
Avery cute Aruban couple living in Holland got engaged there next to us last night. He proposed with a piggy bank that he had written on it will you marry me. We were so excited watching them. We put some$$$ in theirs bank and wished them a happy life.
An article in the paper today was about Kurt Schilling's defaulting on a loan to our state of RI to the tune of 1 million $. Layer off 500 workers.....hmmmm
Nothing else to report.

Nothing else to report.

Well, not really. You forgot to mention that we sold two timeshares and purchased two new ones. The net result is that all three of our Renaissance timeshares are now high season, which is a good thing!
