Bob and I celebrated our 10th wedding anniversary in Aruba. Aruba is a great island along the coast of venezuela. It's a small island (within the kingdom of the netherlands) with about 100,000 population & 51 combined nationalities. The two official languages are the Dutch language and Papiamento. Papiamento is a language that has been evolving through the centuries and absorbed many words from other languages like Dutch, English, diverse African dialects, and most importantly, from Portuguese and Spanish. However, like many islands in the region, Spanish is also often spoken. This island is like a large fruit salad - a mix and mash of flavors from all over the world. One the greatest places in the carribean.
