Man, is it hot here! We started the day with a short “business meeting” to fulfill IRS requirements. Then Tracy and I sat out on the beach for most of the day. It’s a very nice beach. White sand, blue water. No waves though which I wish there was. Did I mention it’s hot?! Sitting out on the beach there’s not much of a breeze and whew it gets hot. Tracy loves it! She can sit in smoldering sun all day. Me not so much. We went shopping in the capital of Aruba – Oranjestad. Not really good deals. Pretty much same prices at the States but you save on the tax. Didn’t get anything. The came back and hung around the hotel rest of the day. We had small group dinners and we chose to go to Madame Janette. It was a nice little restaurant with good food. However, for as many people as I know on this trip… I did not know one person on our there. We we’re disappointed at first but got to know everybody at our table. It was all GSI people. They were fun. Dinner lasted WAY too long though. We actually talked the bus driver into taking a group of us back to the hotel early. We saw Cindy and Woulter right when we got the hotel and decided to hit the tables. We did good! Around midnight Tracy got tired so I walked her up to the room. Well, I had a little more in me. Went back to the bar and had some drinks with a bunch of other GSI people. Again fun. Well then we hit the table again. The casino was glad I came back because I gave back and then some of what Tracy and me won earlier. At 3:00 am I decided I was making the next day really long. It’s been a fun trip. Some good people and good time.

Do we have to wait for desert?
