Aruba

We made it!  

 Pre-massage oils

 Jeff's view from the golf course.  He quickly discovered it's not the best location for golfing.  It even gives the Windy City a run for its money!

 Our Canadian friends. Ryan works for STERIS.

 These guys were living in luxury!

 Don't mind if I do.

 What better way to celebrate a birthday than in Aruba!

 Birthday cake #1

 Birthday dinner

 Birthday cake #2

 Team Texas Hexawave Award Winners

View of our hotel: The Ritz-Carlton (not even a year old!)

 Um.  What's that in my drink?!?

 View from the hotel bar

 Birthday cake #3…two days later (they stored it for us at the restaurant).

Best way to bring an amazing vacation to a close?  Dinner at the Flying Fishbone, of course!

Leaving "One Happy Island"

 That yellow(ish) blob in the middle of the photo is the Ritz-Carlton.
