Aruba was a blast!!! Day 1.

So it's been almost a week since I've been back from Aruba. Aruba was a blast. Not only was it my first girl trip, Aruba was just a good time. We did many things in only 4 days. I didn't expect to like Aruba. But it really is a beautiful island.

Day 1 So on day 1, we arrived in Aruba and got our rental. There was a problem with the rental. So the rental we booked wasn't big enough to fit us all with all of our suitcases. So we had to switch to a bigger rental. We arrived in Aruba on a good Friday. So we headed to O'Niel Caribbean Kitchen in San Nicolas, only to find out it's closed. Man, we were starving. Mind you, our flight was at 11; it's now 5 p.m. So we decided let's head to the Airbnb, which was about 40 minutes away; it was located on the other side of the island. Our Airbnb was located in a beautiful gated community called Gold Coast Villas. Man, it was so beautiful. Just being in that Airbnb makes me want to go back to Aruba. LOL, maybe when I get married, I'll go with my husband and kids, rent the house for a week, and just have a good time. The house was perfect for us. When we arrived inside, the host left a cute happy birthday balloon decor and wine for my friend Mel. Since it was her birthday, we were celebrating. I feel like that was so nice. We definitely gave her a 5-star review. We then proceeded to run to the rooms. The first person in the room gets it. Now, mind you, there is a room downstairs. I just didn't want to be downstairs alone. So I ran upstairs to get a room. After we all showered and got situated, we headed out to get something to eat. We headed to Lola Taqueria for tacos, but the wait was so long that we didn't want to wait. So we then headed to Fat Tuesday's. Now I don't know if it's because we were hungry, but the food at Fat Tuesday was good!!! LOL. The burgers, wings, and fries were fresh. I had a frozen pina colada. We sat down, ate, and just had a great time. We took jello shots. After dinner, we headed to the casino. Cami wanted to play blackjack. I was sitting there, all confused. I didn't know what was going on. We ended our night by heading to a convenience store. We all bought detergent so that we could do our laundry before leaving. I also bought some floss and bottles of water.
