Day 6 - Shopping in Aruba

Last Tuesday, Melissa and I got up early and went for a run.  Of course we had had run by the sign.
I took her on my usual route.  
I stopped to get some pastechi.  The local meat pie.  Then I even went shopping and got some sweatshirts.  
We headed back to the island.  Gwen got a flamingo like Eli.  
Speaking of flamingos.  
Hey there buddy.  
It was our last full day so we were taking it all in.  
My buddies from Chicago.  

All the birds were friendly.  
Double fisting it.  
The best place to be, in the water.  

Ariel and Margot.  
Charlie gave us a show.  

He had the longest neck of all.  
Of course I had to take a selfie with him.  Till next time Charlie.  
Back to the hotel and Aden actually tried to do some homework.  He struggled with the math.
We got ready early so we could shop before dinner.  
First we hit a market to get some snacks for the plane.  
They had some interesting stuff from around the world.  
We tried a few different things.  
The shopping around our hotel is pretty sweet.  Gucci, Louis Vuitton.

Eli got some hot kicks!
Ready for dinner Eli?  
You always see friendly faces in the lobby.  
We went to the steakhouse.  
Nice view of the cruise ships.  
The adult table.  
The kid table.  
The food was awesome.  
We pigged out!
Back to the lobby to hang out after dinner.  Ariel showed everyone what she bought.
We headed back to the room to pack.  

Late that night, we went outside to watch a cruise ship leave.  

So pretty.  
Bye boat.
