Day 4 - Yay! How exciting to see a tiny bit of a place we've never been to. We arrived in Aruba before we got out of bed. We had to be ready for an excursion pick-up at 9:45 am. So, we ate a leisurely breakfast in the Lido Marketplace.
A bus brought us about 3 minutes to the other side of the cruise port and we then boarded a catamaran which brought us to the Atlantis submarine. It was a fantastic dive of 140 ft under the surface. We saw lots of different types of coral, thousands of fish, and deliberately sunken ships. The coral and fish seem to love their artificial refuge.
This seems like an interesting place that is administered by the Dutch. In fact, all citizens are granted citizenship of the Netherlands. This might be a fun place to return on a quick sun vacation someday.
Our ship pulled away from the pier at around 4:45 pm.
