Holland America Line, Caribbean Cruise, 22nd February 2023, Oranjestad, Aruba.

 22nd February 2023, Oranjestad, Aruba. 

The ship had docked when we woke up, we were not in a rush as a tour was booked that left at 08.20.

The tour was a 4x4 trip to the Conchi Natural Pool in the Arikok National Park. 

the ride was very fast and very bumpy. the natural pool was great fun, especially when large waves turned it into a natural jacuzzi. 

Once back in Oranjestad we walked to Shoreline beach, as this beach is very close to the airport it has the same experience as St Maarten with out any crowds! 

We then walked back through the town, did a bit of shopping then all to soon it was time to leave. 

The next two days were at sea as we were bound for Port Everglades and the end of our Caribbean exploration.
