    Packing that something "extra" that you'd recommend

    When traveling to Aruba, whether staying at a timeshare, hotel, or other ................is there anything that you'd recommend to
    others that you feel is a necessity?

    I will start..............nightlight.
    THINK.. is it Thoughtful? Helpful? Inspirational? Necessary? Kind? sidtm

    A windshield shade for the rental car. It keeps the inside of the car cooler and keeps the steering wheel from melting the skin off your hands. This is the very first item that gets packed for our trip. Another thing we can't live without is an anchor for the floats. While in the ocean it saves us from a day trip to Venezuela.




    I want to grow my own food, but I
    can't find any bacon seeds...

    ....if you wear glasses always bring a second pair..... I lost a pair to an agressive wave at Manchebo Beach a few years ago!

    Boca Clips to keep beach towels in place. We’ve used them for many other things as well, if the curtains don’t exactly keep light out in your room, a chip clip for snacks, on a snorkel boat so you don’t lose your baseball/sun hat, etc. They have so many uses.

    Small bills. We like to have singles but also a good amount of 5 and 10 dollar bills handy for tips.

    I always have to pack my djucu if I have any thoughts of going to a casino. Of course, you can usually find them at Purely Aruban Art gift shop located at LaCabana.

    I really do like the casinos in Aruba. In the past, they have been quite kind. We’re in the talking stages of making a return.
