Thank you for posting this. I was born in Aruba, and lived there in 2010, great article! Some fun facts. – The whole island runs on distilled water from the worlds 2nd largest desalination plant. It’s as if smartwater was on tap, healthy for the skin, and hair. Carnival season is also a Great time to visit. the whole island shuts down for huge celebration. beach camping is also a part of our culture that happens in May.
