===== Suggestions from Bill =====

  * Tour of lighthouse and north side of island.
  * Snorkeling at Baby Beach in lagoon on southeastern tip of island. Bring bread to feed the fish. We rented a car to get there.
  * 1/2 day sport fishing on charter boat. Caught a wahoo and lost a marlin. Water was very rough even though it was calm at the beach.

===== Suggestions from Debbie =====

  * She mentioned a pirate ship that sails around the bay and they feed you dinner.
    * Probably this: [[http://www.tripadvisor.com/Attraction_Review-g147248-d1013414-Reviews-Jolly_Pirates_Cruises-Oranjestad_Aruba.html|Jolly Pirates Cruises]]
  * She also mentioned a bus that drives around the island where you can drink on the bus, but that's more of an adult only experience I should think 8-)

===== Places to Eat =====

Just looking at [[http://www.tripadvisor.com/Restaurants-g147247-Aruba.html|Trip Advisor Restaurants]], these jumped out at me: (it looks like we have lots of choices)

  * Costa Riba, San Nicolas
  * Barefoot Restaurant
  * Hollywood Smokehouse
  * Scott's Brats

You know what.. never mind... there are so many, all of these sound awesome ... we will just look while down there and head to whatever we're in the mood for or eat at home.
