Staying healthy while on vacation



We just returned from a relaxing fun-in-the-sun six days on Aruba.  Let me tell you a few of the reasons we like visiting Aruba:  

Their public water supply comes from a desalinization plant where ocean water is cleaned and made safe to drink. 

The people are friendly and helpful.  The people who live there learn four languages in school (English, Spanish, Dutch and Papiamento—the local dialect).

Tourists are made to feel welcome and safe.  Our resort did have a security guard who monitored the traffic so non-resort people using the public beach didn’t enter and use the resort facilities.  But there is no need for a wall to enclose the resort and keep the tourists safe.

Aruba is out of the hurricane zone and it is a safe place to visit during the June-November hurricane season.

It’s a gorgeous island country; a democracy with strong ties to the Netherlands.
