Home sweet... Actually I want to go back!

So I'm home now and had a wonderful time. New Years there was amazing as always. My cousin and I ended up venturing from place to place. Started at Confessions, then went to Senior Frogs then to Mambo Jambo. At 9am we went to breakfast at the Raddison. Good time!!

Out of all the places we went at night I'd say my favorite was Mambo Jambo. Not because my best friend is the DJ but because he plays a mix of music. If you request something, then he'll play it.

We did our usual snorkeling adventure with Pelican Adventures. Of course, always a good time. Pelican always has the best crew to make it a fun time. If your a drinker ask them to make you the Pelican Poison! That stuff is amazing and tastes soooo very good. Although watch your alcohol consumption before snorkeling!

American tourism is down tremendously! Right now the majority of visitors there are from Venezuala. When I was at the Hyatt I didnt see as many Americans as I usually do. Actually I didnt see many Americans at all...

When I arrived in Aruba I didnt go to the hotel like most people. I went straight to Senior Frogs for a yard of Poisonous Frog. If you do get this drink, ask them to hold the red wine.

My vacation flew by way too fast. Most likely because I slept two hours a day/night and stayed busy the rest of the time.

Sundays Moomba beach is the place to be.

If you have any questions feel free to email me. I'll be back in March so see you there!!!

Also I forgot to add I played blackjack at the Holiday Inn. I asked on the board before about double deck blackjack. Well double deck blackjack is fifty dollars a hand at the Holiday Inn. I ended up playing six deck at ten dollars a hand. I started to win and was doing good but got greedy and lost it all. My fault for being ignorant...
