| Flamingos on the south end of Bonaire |
Ok so I haven't really been very good at updating my blog since my last vacation. After we left curacao the internet connection didn't want to upload my posts so here is the highlights of Bonaire and Aruba.

In Bonaire we had three days and two nights on the Island. The overall inpression of the island was that there's not as much tourists in Bonaire as in Curacao, the restaurants were been better then curacao. There was one downside, its a very Rocky island so the beaches weren't Sandy and nice as in curacao.

First day when we arrived here was a very rainy day. Luckily we had rented a car and drove around the south part of the Island. We drove past the saltworks which had a cool pink color, The slave huts that where used in the past at the saltworks, and very pink flamingos.

After Bonaire we headed to Aruba, I don't know if it was the order we travelled around on the islands that didn't make us appreciate Aruba or the fact that it was Aruba. But there was no charm on the island. If I knew I was travelling to an Island that was like a mini US I would have gone to the states again, it just didn't feel genuine like the other islands. The best beach in aruba was Baby Beach, perfect are if you are travelling with kids, a laguna with very shallow and calm water. I didn't like the big beaches by the resorts such as eagle and palm beach. When we visited Aruba it was to windy and the sand was blasting at you.
We found a nice genuine restaurant Zeerover which served fish and shrimp fried. Basically they serve 1 kind of fish per day, and you pay by weight. Compared to the rest of Aruba it wasn't at all expensive and very good food.
