I brought one home with me as a souvenir.
For the first few hours of our time at this beach, I just let my feet wander, and I took photographs of all of the beautiful nature that surrounded us.  Want to order a print of this?

It looks so tropical looking towards the ocean, but when you turn around, it just looks like a desert. It's slightly disorienting.  Want to order a print of this? Click on the photo to contact us!

The countdown to the wedding was getting shorter, so we all gathered up for a group photo before heading back to the main beach for the ceremony.  Print not for sale. Everything was so casual about the wedding, it was great. A lot of strangers stopped by during the ceremony since it was right on the beach, and the bride and groom illuminated by the sunset was just perfect.  Print not for sale.  Print not for sale.

Music boomed over the sand, and as soon as the sun went down, funky light displays flashed around the reception area. There was a buffet that snaked itself around the reception area, and everything you could ever hope for in a beach wedding came to life.  Print not for sale.  Print not for sale.

We partied ALL night. That is not an exaggeration. After the beach closed up, one of the guests had a home on the island, and we went over there, enjoyed their pool and the sunrise on the ocean.

We eventually all went to bed or fell asleep next to the pool for a while. The next day we all focused on recovering from the party and flying back to Venezuela.
I am so thankful that I was able to make the trip down to Venezuela to see my sister, and am even more thankful that I got to add Aruba to the list of places I have been as well. It was a wonderful experience, and I would go back in a heartbeat. One day, I will.
