Nate and Jen took a much needed vacation this last week. Their destination? Aruba! What a wonderful trip. They spent 5 nights on beautiful Palm Beach just letting life's stresses drift away with the surf. We stayed in the Holiday Inn resort, which was a typical middle-aged Holiday Inn hotel, but it had the closest proximity to the ocean of any of the hotels on the strip, and the view from our room was spectacular. A big thanks to Grammy and Grandpa Q, and Mike and Katie for taking such great care of our kids while we were away.
Enjoying some time on the beach

There were a lot of restaurant choices near our hotel. This was at a little sushi place and was a sushi sampler. We liked the food so much that we came back to this place twice.
Here is the view from our hotel room
This was a pretty typical picture of me for the week.
Enjoying the warm weather.
At the little grille on the end of Pelican Pier, directly out from our hotel. You're literally a foot away from the edge of the pier (no railings). They had a wonderful grilled mahi mahi sandwich.
We took a snorkeling trip on this pirate ship with the "Jolly Pirates". This was a lot of fun. We snorkeled over a huge sunken US battle ship from WWII, as well as some off-shore coral.
