Island Girl

I have never seen an island from the air before, a tropical island in the Caribbean especially.
I was so tickled to see these popping up in our window on our flight to Aruba.
And they made me more and more excited to get to our destination.
I think these here were Dominican Republic or Haiti.

(It's the DR, I just compared it to a satellite map - how fun!

I love Google.)

I don't know but it was sure neat-o.
Here's a cruise ship chugging through the Caribbean Sea.
And then when we got close to Aruba and dropped altitude a bit,

I was sure I could see sea turtles surfacing waving their paddley flippers at me to say Welcome!
So blue.
