Editorial Summary

The creators document their first visit to Aruba while on a cruise excursion with ABC Tours. They describe the island as a dry, windy, and desert-like environment that differs significantly from other lush Caribbean islands. The excursion involves traveling in colorful Jeeps through rocky terrain and steep hills, which the creators describe as a bumpy, four-hour roller coaster experience. They visit Fontaine Cave to observe indigenous history and rock formations, and they experience a natural fish pedicure. The trip also includes views of the flat landscape and the ocean, though the creators warn future visitors to bring sunglasses, bandanas for dust, and water shoes for the rocky natural pools. They conclude that while the excursion was physically demanding and very dusty, it was a highly memorable and enjoyable adventure.
